The South Carolina INBRE Program and the USC School of Medicine Instrumentation Resource Facility are pleased to announce the 11th annual workshop on Basic Confocal Microscopy. The Workshop will be held June 13-17, 2016 at the USC School of Medicine in Columbia, SC.

Workshop material is directed towards beginning and intermediate users of confocal microscopes and involves a series of lectures (specimen preparation, labeling strategies, proper set-up of instrument operating parameters, proper handling of 2D and 3D confocal images in programs such as Adobe Photoshop and AMIRA), hands on specimen preparation, and time on a number of different point scanning and spinning disk confocal microscopes.

Companies that have provided equipment and applications experts for past workshops include  Leica, Nikon, Olympus, Perkin Elmer, Zeiss, Intelligent Imaging Innovations (3i) and Photometrix. Participants will have ample time for hands on use of the instruments and processing of images in Photoshop and AMIRA during the workshop.

Faculty will include Dr. Jay Jerome of Vanderbilt University, Dr. Ralph Albrecht of the University of Wisconsin Madison, Dr. John Mackenzie of North Carolina State University, Dr. Tom Trusk of the Medical University of South Carolina, and Dr. Bob Price of the University of South Carolina.

The $350 tuition covers supplies for processing of specimens, breakfast and lunch for the week, 2 dinners and a reception on Lake Murray.
