Free Imaging Workshop: Liverpool Centre for Cell Imaging

 

When: 21st & 22nd September 2016

 

Where: NWC Research Centre, Liverpool, L3 9TA

 

This year our focus will be on increased resolution and novel fluorescent proteins. The program is flexible and incremental : The first morning will cover basic knowledge of fluorescence and confocal microscopy, including new development for increased resolution imaging (e.g. Airy-scan). After lunch, there will be more specific talks focusing on new fluorescent proteins, imaging cell migration and super-resolution microscopy.  The second day will be hands on activities in the Centre for Cell Imaging.

There are a limited number of spaces, especially for the second day, and registration will be on a first-come first serve basis until the 12th September 2016. Registration is free but required so that we can calculate catering and space requirements. You can register here.

 

 

We look forward to seeing you there,

 

The CCI team
