We’re happy to invite you to two interesting talks primarily about STED (stimulated emission depletion) microscopy, and a workshop for users that have some experience with Leica SP8.

MIC will have one Leicas best application specialists, Ulf Schwarz, visiting and we really encourage you to come to his talks. He has long time experience in Leica and been involved in STED from the beginning.  The talks will have a practical approach and will cover the work flow when doing STED (sample prep, optimization, resolution, deconvolution etc.). He will also cover applications both with live and fixed cells.

Talks in Aud. 4, 6th of February, 1245-1500, open for everyone:

  • STED Microscopy 1 - Tips & Tricks for Sample Preparation & Image Acquisition
    (Brief Intro to principle, Fluorophores, Mounting Media, Deconvolution, Resolution)
  • STED Microscopy 2 – Applications: Fixed Samples and Live Cell Imaging
