Dear Colleagues,

There have been a few notable additions to the list of equipment and
software that will be coming to the Yale Microscopy Workshop that
will be held June 7 -9th 2011. This free event is a combination of
symposia, classes and open access to functional microscopes and
analytic software. It is the perfect opportunity to compare
instruments, get advice or try out something new and is open to the
international research community.

In addition to the wide array of instruments and software that were
previously announced to be available during this event
(http://microscopy.med.yale.edu/equipment.html), an extensive
collection of super resolution microscopes will be available for use:

Super resolution microscopes available for demos:
Nikon N-STORM microscope
Vutara SR-200 3D multi-channel microscope
Applied Precision OMX structured illumination microscope
Leica TCS CW STED
Leica TCS Ti:Sapphire STED
Leica GSD ground state depletion microscope

Please see the website for free registration and a schedule of events
that includes demonstrations too numerous to mention here.
