The course aims to provide all participants with training in the fundamental theoretical and experimental aspects of super-resolution microscopy (Nobel Prize in 2014).
Scientific tutorials will introduce fundamental and advance aspects of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. Experimental demo-session will further deepen the understanding and applicability of super-resolution microscopy.

As the name implies, super-resolution fluorescence microscopy is a field in which novel optical approaches and single molecule sensitive fluorescence methods are applied to answer question in cellular biology via nanoscale biological imaging.

Syllabus
Lectures / seminars:
Introduction to available super-resolution fluorescence microscopy techniques (e.g. STED/PALM/SIM/RESOLFT/DNA-PAINT etc.) and their applicability. Demo-sessions on commercial super-resolution microscopy platforms.
