***August 3 - 9, 2014* *
*Genentech Hall, UCSF Mission Bay*
*Directors: Bo Huang and Kurt Thorn*
I am pleased to announce that we will once again be offering the
QB3-UCSF Course in Biological Light Microscopy. Last year's course was a
great success, and this year's promises to be even better. This course
provides an intensive introduction to the theory and practice of light
microscopy, beginning with optics and continuing to the latest
super-resolution techniques.
The course includes didactic lectures from a number of UCSF faculty in
their areas of expertise and hands-on laboratory sessions with
state-of-the-art microscopes. Specific topics include: basic optics
(build your own optical rail microscope); fourier optics; brightfield
contrasting; fluorescence microscopy and probes; confocal microscopy;
TIRF; two-photon, FRAP/FLIP/photoconversion; and super-resolution
microscopy
Laboratory work and lectures will be held at the UCSF Mission Bay
campus. Course tuition is $2,295, including lunch and dinner. Stipends
for tuition are available.
Attendance limited to 24 students. *Please apply by April 15, 2014.*
