 Details:

Cameras utilizing Intensification and Electron-Multiplication technologies are used by life and physical science microscopists to enable the imaging of dynamic events under the most challenging low-light conditions such as those encountered with TIRF, FRET, PALM, confocal and deconvolution techniques.  Photometrics is presenting a free, live, interactive, web-based seminar on these two signal amplification technologies on Friday, 3-April at 1:00 PM (New York time).

 

Who should attend:

Anyone interested in learning about  the recent advancements in science-grade CCD cameras for ultra-low light imaging and how these technologies work, what their fundamental limitations are, and what should be considered before acquiring such a camera for their lab should attend.   Details are below.  There is no cost, but connection lines are limited so reserve yours now.
