BIOL 180 Microscopy Principles and Application

Research in the life sciences is increasingly driven by the need to use microscopy to examine cellular components and processes.  The goal of this course is to provide graduate students with a solid foundation in both the theory and practice of light microscopy, with emphasis on fluorescence and confocal techniques and approaches.  We will focus on practical aspects of microscope use including experimental design, data collection and analysis.  In addition, newly emerging imaging techniques relevant to the life sciences will be discussed.  There will be considerable "hands on" training on different microscopes within the Biological Sciences Light Microscopy Facility.
