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!
