Dear all
It is my pleasure to invite you to follow, online, free of charge and without registration, the LCI facility microscopy course Microscopy: improve your imaging skills – from sample preparation to image analysis. The public program starts on Tuesday next week (28th of Jan) and runs until the 13th of February.
As usual, all lectures are broadcasted live on Zoom and posted on Youtube every day, for the benefit of our far-away colleagues.
The aim for this course is to improve the microscopy skills of students and researchers who have already used a microscope to acquire digital images of fluorescent samples but feel that more knowledge could help them.
Here is a selection of what we will talk about:
- Optics and image formation,
- How microscopes work
- Objectives and refraction index
- Cameras and detectors, Noise and background, Bit depth and saturation
- Sample preparation, Immunostaining, Clearing
- Resolution and contrast, Nyquist sampling, how to choose microscope settings
- Data handling, how to make article figures, Requirements for image analysis, Colocalization, Ethics
- Image processing and analysis
Check our course webpage to see the course schedule (Broadcasted activities are in blue) and the Zoom link. Here is a full description of the course.
