If you have difficulty analyzing your image data, are interested in getting the best possible image out of your microscope, like to hear from experts how imaging pitfalls influence your analysis and how this can be overcome, then this in-person workshop may be of use to you. This workshop is a joint collaboration Waisman Center, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience Core led by Dr. Karla Knobel and SVI represented by Dr. Nicolaas van der Voort (niek@svi.nl).

With hands-on sessions using the Huygens Software, you will learn how to identify and fix imaging issues like blur, noise, crosstalk, drift, and chromatic aberration. This will yield high quality input data for quantitative analyses. We will perform reliable colocalization and object analysis methods for 2D, 3D and time series.

This workshop runs at the same time as the BINA conference for imaging facility staff in Madison. Hence this workshop is intended for microscopy users not attending the BINA. For facility staff attending the BINA, We'd love to meet you there on Monday morning, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday morning.

The Huygens Software and demo images will be made available for computers and personal laptops. The workshop has a limited number of seats, so be quick to register!
