The (pre-semester) microscopy course is organized by the (bio-)imaging facility and aims to generate the understanding of how to design your experiments using matching imaging techniques. As a red line we want to raise awareness of the importance of proper data acquisition and the timely image analysis assessments during essay establishment: timely assay-evaluation is critical to determine if the fundamental ‘properties of process of interest’ can be resolved and quantified by the used imaging approach.
To this aim, participants will be introduced to contemporary microscopy techniques, with a focus on the methods that are available at IST Austria. Lectures will cover microscopy-related principles of optics, principles of fluorescence, anatomy of the microscope, methods of optical sectioning, image acquisition methods, super-resolution technologies, basics of electron microscopy & sample preparation, and the basics of data analysis.
