Dear All
The popular residential Light Microscopy and Confocal Microscopy Courses from the Royal
Microscopical Society are returning to York in July 2016 and there are still spaces
available!
LM Summer School
4 – 6 July 2016
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.
The programme is available to view online at www.rms.org.uk/lmschool
To ensure you get the most from the course and are able to get plenty of time on the
equipment, spaces are limited, so make sure you book your place sooner rather than
later.
Getting the Most from your Confocal
7-8 July 2016
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 2-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.
The course is a great way to build your confidence in confocal microscopy so that you are
able to use your skills immediately back in the workplace.
Again, the programme is now available to view online at www.rms.org.uk/confocal
We look forward to seeing you in York!
