Webinar synopsis:
Light sheet microscopy is an extremely powerful alternative to established
fluorescence imaging techniques, especially when it comes to 3-D imaging deep
within tissue or within whole live organisms. By selectively illuminating the
observed optical section with a thin sheet of light, photo bleaching is reduced
to a minimum, making light sheet microscopy ideal for nondestructive imaging of
fragile samples over extended periods of time. With this ultimate 3-D
microscopy technique, millimeter-sized samples can be imaged extremely fast
and with remarkable resolution and penetration depth. Our panel of experts will
introduce the audience to this novel and powerful technique, providing real-
world examples of its application in a variety of research settings.
During the webinar, our speakers will:
Give a brief summary of the technique, its advantages, and its challenges
Present the advances in their research made possible through the use of light
sheet microscopy
Answer questions submitted by you!
Presenters:
- Ernst H. K. Stelzer, Ph.D.; Goethe University, Frankfurt, Germany
- Pavel Tomancak, Ph.D.; Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and
Genetics, Dresden, Germany
