There are a few spots left at our course (27 Jan – 14 Feb 2025): ‘Microscopy: improve your imaging skills – from sample preparation to image analysis’ (6 credits). Application deadline: 5th of November 2024.
This course is completely unique in that it is a highly hands-on course but because it runs completely remotely, your hands will be on your own microscope and your own sample. 😊
- To see how the course can help your microscopy project, check out the course schedule 2025 and the alumni testimonies on the course webpage.
- You can read the course syllabus and apply on this page. Make sure you check the eligibility criteria and click on the + sign at the top for more information.
- If you cannot apply to the course, you can anyway follow any of the lectures (in blue on the course schedule) as they will be publicly broadcasted live on Zoom and accessible to anyone without registration. The schedule and zoom link are available on the course page.
The purpose of the LCI facility microscopy course is to provide PhD students, researchers and core facility staff who have some prior experience of microscopy with enough theoretical and practical knowledge about their OWN sample and their OWN microscope, to enable them to:
- assess and improve their sample so that it becomes suitable for data extraction from fluorescence images,
- make best use of the hardware available in their lab/facility,
- fully understand the acquisition parameters they need to set in their own microscope software,
- design their experiment from scientific question to image analysis using a strong knowledge base.
The aim is to provide you with tools to acquire on ANY wide field, confocal or light sheet microscope, images of your samples that reliably answer your scientific question.
The course is free of charge. Contact us (LiveCellImaging@ki.se) for enquiries.
