COURSE ON OPTICAL MICROSCOPY IMAGING FOR BIOSCIENCES - OPEN DAY

The 4th Course on Optical Microscopy Imaging for Biosciences is an intensive course destinated to researchers that want to get the basis of modern light microscopy, so the course will explore the principles of light microscopy including the theory of image formation, the anatomy of an optical microscope, light contrast techniques, fluorescence wide-field microscopy and laser scanning confocal microscopy.
