Greetings,

Super-resolution microscopy is a new class of optical imaging techniques that can achieve sub- 50 nanometer resolution images of fixed, fluorescently-labeled samples.  The Bioscience Imaging Facility is hosting a super-resolution microscopy workshop on Tuesday, February 7th, 10am-5pm.  This workshop will include lectures and demonstration focusing on PALM, STORM, and SIM.  Please consult the attached flyer for more information.

Both Zeiss and Nikon will install their super-resolution microscopy systems at the Biosicence Imaging Facility for this workshop.  These platforms will continue to be available throughout the remainder of February.  This installation offers a special opportunity for researchers to test their own samples at super resolution.  Please take this opportunity to run test samples, while these microscopes are available.  RSVP to Aaron Taylor (abtaylor at purdue.edu) no later than Decemeber 1st, 2011, if you would like to run a test sample.  Special sample preparation and special dyes are required in some cases, so please plan ahead.

Best regards,
Aaron
