Beschreibung	Fluorescence microscopy has become one of the core techniques in biological research. Its applications range from the study of the expression of specific molecular markers with high spatial resolution in single cells to the probing of cell functions in living organisms. Constant progress in microscope design and in fluorescent probe development has led to a large choice of applications based on the principles of fluorescence microscopy. This course will aim at giving an understanding of key concepts of the main techniques used in life sciences. It will also insist on practical issues essential for a productive use of these techniques in biological and biomedical research.
Lernziele	- The fundamental principles of light and fluorescence microscopy - The differences between wide-field, confocal and 2-photon microscopy - The basics of TIRF, FRET and FRAP  - The essential concepts in image acquisition and processing - The basics of fluorescence imaging from live samples - What types of fluorescent probes are available - What super resolution and single molecule imaging can achieve - How to image a whole organ at cellular resolution
