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!

Electronics Design Center

 

Overview of Services

The mission of the Electronics Design Center (EDC) is to advance the science and technology of microsensors and microsystems for chemical and biological applications and to provide education, training, expertise and facilities for students, faculty and researchers to advance these technologies. The EDC has pursued research in areas ranging from solid-state and biomedical sensors to micro-electrochemical energy systems. Applications for this research include medical, biological, automotive, industrial process control and various environmental monitoring uses. The Center is not only an educational and research center but also a fully equipped microfabrication laboratory that provides such services as metal/insulation sputtering, photolithography, wafer dicing and thick film printing. The EDC serves as maker space, for graduate and undergraduates taking courses in microfabrication, to students and researchers building their own devices. Expert faculty and staff are available to assist external users with service work and prototype development.
