Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to participate in a three day workshop. This free
annual event is a combination of symposium, practical classes and
open access to a wide variety of microscopes. This year's symposium
is focused on Super-Resolution Microscopy. It is open to the
international research community and only requires registration.
Please visit the website for a complete schedule and list of
equipment

Name: 2011 Yale Microscopy Workshop

Time:  June 7 - 9th, 2011

Location:  Yale Medical School, The Anlyan Center (TAC), New Haven, CT

Cost: Free on-line and on-site registration

Information: <http://microscopy.med.yale.edu/index.html>http://microscopy.med.yale.edu/index.html

Features:
- symposium on Super-Resolution Imaging
- walk-in clinics, demonstrations and open access to fully functional
microscopes
- multi vendor participation (over 8 vendors)
- a practical "micro-course" will be offered on photoconversion

In addition to a large variety of confocals, spinning disks, and
widefields provided by over 8 vendors, multiple super-resolution
microscopes will be available for use throughout the workshop.
Several microscopes will have their first open-access debut at this
event:
- Nikon N-STORM microscope
- Leica ground state depletion for super-resolution
- Vutara SR-200 3D multi-channel super-resolution microscope

Reservations can be made for many of the instruments after
registration. View this as an opportunity to perform a "surgical
strike" exploration of new instrumentation or techniques without any
financial or time commitments. Feel free to come for advice from
vendor representatives or to try out a microscope even if you are not
attending a class or a seminar.

Please see the website for free registration, a schedule of events,
and list of equipment.

Please feel free to disseminate information about this workshop by
word-of-mouth or through email at your institution. Need to try out
an instrument that is not on the list but manufactured by a vendor
that is already participating? Write to an organizer and we'll see if
they can bring it.

We look forward to seeing you there - please reserve early.
