Leica Microsystems and BioTechniques have organized a free web-

seminar in May that may be of interest to you:



Confocal and two-photon microscopy methods for imaging the brain

Date:  22nd May 2013

Time:  1:00pm EST

Duration:  60 minutes

Speakers:

Dawen Cai, Ph.D.

Assistant Research Scientist,

Department of Physics,

University of Michigan

 

Ian R. Winship, Ph.D.

Assistant Professor,

Neurochemical Research Unit,

Department of Psychiatry,

University of Alberta



A deeper understanding of brain function requires visualization of

the complex architecture of neurons and their connections. With

the ability to peer deeper into samples than conventional light

microscopy approaches, confocal and two-photon microscopy are

proving to be indispensable tools for such brain mapping studies.

In this special webinar, two researchers working at the

cutting-edge of brain imaging will discuss their applications of

the latest confocal and two-photon microscopy techniques.

From fluorescent labeling and imaging of neural circuits using

the Brainbow system to in vivo imaging of brain structure,

function, and blood flow, this webinar will give researchers a

deeper appreciation of the potential for new microscopy methods

to unlock the secrets of the cellular world. Unique insights into

sample handling and processing of multicolor images will also be

presented, and attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.
