Courses@CRG: Biological Super-Resolution Microscopy

In the last years, super-resolution light microscopy equipment has become more widely available for biological researchers. Most if not all of the existing approaches do however present challenges in sample preparation, image acquisition and also the subsequent analysis that need to be met for the successful execution of a biological experiment. The course will provide an introduction into super-resolution imaging for STED and localization microscopy on state of the art instrumentation and focus on the important aspects of label selection, labeling strategies, sample mounting, imaging (3D) and subsequent anaylsis of STED and dSTORM datasets.
