The course is updated as a Science Toolbox course and newly tailored in a Basic Module (5 ECTS) and three advanced module options (2.5 ECTS each), which can be taken directly thereafter or to a later timepoint.

 Two of the advanced modules are newly designed and introduce into analytic imaging modalities, namely Mass Spectrometric Imaging and IR & Raman imaging. For details, please contact the respective module organizers Nanna Bjarnholt and Lisbeth Garbrecht Thygesen, respectively (cc). The advanced modules are open for students that had passed the Basic Module or acquired the relevant knowledge through other imaging courses at UCPH or other universities.

The basic module will run from April 23 till May 21 (twice a week). Imaging Centres involved are CFIM, CAB, and for the advanced module X-Ray and Neutron Imaging DTU’s DanFix in Denmark and MAX IV and ESS in Sweden and among the teachers are Klaus Qvortrup, Michael Gajhede and Alexander Schulz.

This course aims at giving an overview of biomedical imaging including fluorescence, electron, X-ray and synchrotron imaging as well image analysis. The course includes showcases at the instruments and, thus, will be an important asset for students that want to integrate biological and soft-matter imaging in PhD projects. Theory as presented in lectures will be supported by discussions of relevant journal articles.
