Welcome!
ALERT Event: Nanoscopy Imaging Using STED 3X Technology – Achieving Resolutions Down to 30nm (Registry Required)
Date: Friday, Nov. 22nd. Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: Biomedical Research Building, Room 105
Overview:
The seminar will cover the fundamentals and capabilities of STED 3X Nanoscopy and Confocal Super-Resolution technology. STED (Stimulated Emission Depletion) allows for super-resolution imaging purely through optical means, built on a confocal platform. Using the Leica TCS SP8 system, you can achieve 30nm XY and 130nm Z resolutions in STED mode, as well as 140nm XY and 300nm Z resolutions in confocal super-resolution mode, all powered by Leica’s exclusive White Light Laser (tunable from 470–670 nm) in a single system.
Hands-On Training (Registry Required):
Following the seminar, we'll be hosting four one-hour training sessions for STED users from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Due to time constraints, each session will be limited, but it's a fantastic opportunity for our local imaging community.
Please register here. We look forward to seeing you there!
(hide this warning on this page)The Department of Biology’s newly created collaborative learning/research space, bio[box], provides undergraduate, graduate, and faculty researchers with the space, tools, and instrumentation to facilitate collaborative learning and research. Tools and instruments range from the very simple (e.g., measuring tapes for field work) to the state of the art. The aim of this facility is to give students the opportunity to explore the cutting edge of biological research with the support and guidance of our faculty. It is our hope that this space will foster scientific creativity, independence, and serendipity by enabling students to work on their own projects alongside faculty engaged in groundbreaking cross-disciplinary collaborative research. bio[box] is an unstaffed user facility; researchers at all levels must receive training on our instrumentation before they may use the facility. Undergraduate projects must be sponsored by a faculty member from the Department of Biology.
