Hello All,

 

Welcome to 3^rd Annual Basic Confocal Workshop, held in the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, to be held Friday, Nov. 4 at 9a..

 

This one-day workshop provides an exciting opportunity for students/researchers to gain hands-on experience to state-of-the-art technology in an intimate environment.

 

There will be a lecture to start the day, with multiple rotations on the following equipment;

 

State of the Art!!!

 

Leica SP8 – High speed point scanning confocal with spectral capability HyD (high sensitivity) detectors.  This system will also be fitted with a white light laser and digital light sheet.

 

Nikon A1R-Si – High speed point scanning confocal with spectral capability and GaAsP (high sensitivity) detectors.  This system will also be fitted with a Mightex Polygon DMD.

 

Olympus FV 3000 - High speed point scanning confocal system with GaAsP detectors and Tru-spectral scanning capability.

 

Additionally;

 

Nikon A1 – Point scanning confocal with GaAsP detectors.

 

Nikon TiE with spinning disc.  Both back-thinned EMCCD and sCMOS cameras will be available.  This system is also fitted with a Bruker miniscanner for photo manipulation.

 

Registration is required, but participation is free!
