Life Science Webinar Series

Life Science Webinar Series
Recent developments in electron microscopy have generated a renaissance in biological imaging, allowing researchers to visualize 3D structures of biological entities at the molecular scale - including viruses, protein complexes and individual proteins. Equally important, the refinement of cryogenic sample preparation, sample handling techniques and automation have permitted investigation of these structures in a fully hydrated state and in their native context. Electron microscopy is being used today in leading research laboratories around the world to better understand the HIV virus, the SARS virus, connectomics of the brain, visual proteomics and other scientific discoveries.
Topic:
An Introduction to TILL Photonics: From Real Time Imaging to Confocal Microscopy
Description:
TILL Photonics introduces their product portfolio for fluorescence microscopy. This includes real time imaging systems with fast light sources and the modular and flexible microscopy platform iMIC.  Confocal images can be obtained with the spinning disk unit Andromeda or two-photon microscopes, which will also be introduced in the webinar.  New directions in correlative microscopy and the integration of light and electron microscopes will be presented.
Duration:
1 hour
Date & Time:
TBD

LS Webinar 2011-12-14 Intro to TILL-Photonics   (recorded December 14, 2011)
Topic:
Live Cell Imaging
Description:
Many advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques can  be easily combined in a single instrument. The iMIC microscopy system allows for fast switching between FRAP, FRET, TIRF and confocal microscopy.  The integration of these techniques and their application for studying biological systems will be covered in the webinar.

Intro To EM for Life Sciences Webcast - 720   (recorded January 13, 2010)
Topic:
High-throughput 3D Cellular Imaging
Description:
Recent technological developments offer SEM resolution that approaches TEM resolution typically required for this type of application. Further we found that Focused Ion Beam (FIB) technology allows automated sectioning with a slice thickness that is almost freely programmable. FEI is the pioneer of the combining SEM and FIB technology in one platform (DualBeam) and here we explain how our DualBeam Technology can be applied as a fully automated serial sectioning tool.

Topic:
Correlative Microscopy: Bridging the Gap Between Light Microscopy and Electron Microscopy
Description:
 Modern microscopy in the life sciences covers a large field of applications - ranging from the nanoscale to the mesoscale. Correlating the information at the macromolecular level with the overall cellular architecture can lead to a better understanding of cellular functions. Fluorescence Microscopy (FM) methods enables the study of these dynamic processes and can localize fluorescently tagged proteins in cells and tissues. However, these techniques lack the fine structural information which can be augmented by Electron Microscopy (EM). Correlating the information from light microscopy and electron microscopy can identify the structure of interest by FM and then enable navigation to and zooming in on that structure by EM. This webinar will present the emerging development of correlative microscopy methods for both Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).
