subtractions/additions to the YMW

[Haberman, Ann]

Dear Colleagues,

Unfortunately, some vendors will not be able to bring certain microscopes that we had previously listed as being available for use at the Yale Microscopy Workshop this June 9 -11th 2009.

Subtractions:

1) Olympus can not bring their FV1000, but will bring the FV10i, an automated, self-contained confocal

2) Leica will not be able to bring their TIRF system, but Nikon will be bringing theirs.

In addition to the wide array of instruments and software previously listed as available for use during this free event (http://microscopy.med.yale.edu/equipment.html), the following will also be present:

Additions:

Leica TCS Large Scale Imaging confocal

Nikon AZ100  macroscope coupled with C1 confocal

CompuCyte iCys  laser scanning cytometer for high content screening

This free event is a combination of symposia, classes and open access to functional microscopes and analytic software. This workshop is open to broader scientific community as a forum for emerging equipment and techniques. Feel free to take advantage of this opportunity to compare instruments, get advice or try out something new.

Please see the website for free registration and a schedule of events. http://microscopy.med.yale.edu/index.html
