We cordially invite you to be part of this year’s summer school where we will focus on various modern state-of-the-art microscopes that allow visualization of fine structures within cells and also their chemical composition.

The plenary lectures will provide a general overview of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy and label-free Raman imaging while the hands-on sessions will address various relevant samples prepared by the participants either previously or during the course. School participants will form small groups of 4-5 people and rotate various microscope stations. Data evaluation/image processing will be part of the schedule as well as group discussions.

Please visit our website further details including the application form and the preliminary time schedule of the course. Application deadline: 15 April 2016
