Those who work with FACS might be aware of the very bright dyes called Brilliant Violet. They can also be used in microscopy. 🙂
BV dyes are all excited around 400 nm (same as blue dyes) but they can emit at much longer wavelengths, like red or far red. This means that if they are used together, they are excited at the same time and the colors are only separated based on the emission! But these dyes are very bright which is a great advantage.
Et voilà! 🙂
The excellent Centre for Cellular Imaging core facility at Sahlgrenska Academy – Gothenburg University is looking into hiring someone!
Have a look at the ad here.
Neubias is a European effort to get biologists comfortable with image analysis. conferences (Hungary, Jan 2018), courses, facility staff training, ‘biologists meet analysts’ meetings… They have it all!
Now this is your chance to learn and get help to analyze images for your microscopy project! Check the Neubias conference and courses in Hungary!
And if you would like to work with microscopy in the future, remember to join the ELMI (European Light Microscopy Initiative) so you get all their job announcements! 🙂
One more cute stage insert for the LCI facility, thanks to Peter Arfert, the KTH workshop wizard and his 3D printing machine! 🙂
Up to three postdoc and researcher positions in Computerized Image Processing, Scientific Computing, and Bioinformatics in Uppsala
Do you want to develop new, intelligent ways of processing and managing very large amounts of microscopy images in order to leverage the imminent explosion of information from modern experimental setups in the biosciences? Join the recently started interdisciplinary research project Hierarchical Analysis of Spatial and Temporal Data (HASTE) within the research groups of Prof. Carolina Wählby, Assoc. Prof. Andreas Hellander, Department of Information Technology, and Assoc. Prof. Ola Sjuth, Department of Pharmaceutical Biosciences, Uppsala University, Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab), Vironova AB and AstraZeneca AB, Sweden.
More information and instructions for how to apply can be found here (Postdoc: If your PhD degree was obtained after 2014-05-23) or here (Researcher: If your PhD was obtained before 2014-05-23).
Deadline for application: 2017-05-23. Note that all applications need to be submitted though the online recruitment system.
Would you like to boost your knowledge about Imaris, learn loads of tipes and get expert help with your pipeline? Join the Imaris User Group Meeting in Basel at the end of June!
Great news! Xiaowei Zhuang from Harvard University will visit us on the 31st of May!
On top of the STORM super resolution technique, her lab recently came up the MERFISH technique -a multiplexing-based in situ RNA sequencing-, as well as a FRET-based method to study Protein-DNA transient interactions during replication, transcription…
Check here her projects and mind-blowing ‘selected’ publication list.
Come and listen to her talk on Wednesday, May 31 at 10.00-11.00. Main lecture Hall 4th Floor, Novum, Flemingsberg
”Illuminating biology at the nanoscale and systems scale using single-molecule and super-resolution imaging”.
Hope to see you there! 🙂
This course about light microscopy is made of videos only! It is very complete, very interesting and very well done!
Point Spread Function? Fourier transform? Image formation? Resolution? Everything about light microscopy you wish you had learned earlier! 🙂
Do your bit as a microscopy geek and download a great app called Resolution!
You can enter your objective of choice (magnification and NA) and get for the wavelength of your choice loads of useful information like the resolution in xy and z the optional sampling step…
But if you REALLY want to enter thegeek club, you must also get the Fourier Filter app! Hours of geeking fun ahead of you! 😉
Last call! Deadline 30th April!
Send your entries to the Nikon Small World image competition! Really nice prizes to be won including a trip to the Nikon headquarters in Japan! Many of the images produced daily at our facility are at the level of what is in their gallery so grab the chance! 🙂
