Light Microscopy Fundamentals LM 1
Course overview
The LM level 1 course offers a combination of theoretical introduction with hands-on sessions teaching the fundamentals of light microscopy including transmission, wide-field fluorescence, deconvolution and confocal imaging. The students learn the concept of resolution, the different ways to create contrast and how to set up a light microscope for transmission and fluorescence imaging. Students are introduced to confocal imaging (laser scanning and spinning disk), and learn how to operate the different acquisition modes to acquire multichannel and 3D/4D (time-lapse) image stacks.
