Hi All

The Light Microscopy and Confocal Microscopy Courses from the Royal
Microscopical Society are now open for registration. This is an intensive*
hands-on course*, with lectures and demonstrators that include from Peter
O'Toole, Pete Evennett, Michael Zoeffell, Joanne Marrison, Chris  Guerin
and many more.

These well-regarded annual courses are popular each year and are often
fully-booked in advance as spaces are limited to permit a full hands-on
experience.



RMS Light Microscopy Summer School

4-6 July, University of York

www.rms.org.uk/lmschool



The Light Microscopy summer school is an annual, residential three day
course held at the University of York covering the principles of light
microscopy. Participants are also trained in practical issues surrounding
light microscopy. After introductory presentations, the course is taught
predominantly through hands-on practical sessions.

The course is suitable for both novices and more experienced users wanting
to gain a greater understanding of the microscope and feedback every year
is always fantastic. Students come from a range of backgrounds within both
research and commercial organisations. All have benefited greatly from the
Course and leave with increased understanding and skills



Getting the Most from your Confocal

7-8 July, University of York

www.rms.org.uk/confocal



This Course utilises many different sample types and fluorescent probes
(DNA stains, classic antibody labels and fluorescent proteins) and these
are chosen to best demonstrate particular problems and techniques. Focus is
on the techniques they enable and the problems they generate, which will be
applicable to any sample types.

The two days consist of short tutorials followed by hands-on practice:

Day 1 takes participants through the basic principles of confocal
microscopy and then trains through hands-on practice how to configure and
image multicolour, multidimensional samples using a confocal microscope.

Day 2 builds on the experiences of day 1 and enables participants to try
FRAP and spectral profiling.
