9th_ABiS_Microscopy_Course

日時 and 場所

Date: January 23rd Thursday - 24th Friday, 2025
Venue: Imaging Core Facility, OIST campus, Onna-son, Okinawa
Language: Japanese

内容：

The course will cover all the way from the fundamentals of optical microscopy to state-of-the-art, multi-dimensional wide field fluorescence, confocal, super-resolution and light-sheet microscopy systems. Participants will learn through lectures, practical demonstrations and discussions, designed to deliver the principles and applications of modern microscopy.

このコースでは、光学顕微鏡の基礎から、最先端の多次元広視野蛍光顕微鏡、共焦点顕微鏡、超解像顕微鏡、ライトシート顕微鏡までをカバーします。参加者は、講義、実習、ディスカッションを通して、最新の顕微鏡法の原理と応用を学びます。

A strong emphasis will be placed on ‘choosing the right tool for the job’. Participants will also learn to obtain and interpret microscope images, to assess data for common errors and artifacts, and to perform quantitative optical measurements.

The course will benefit primarily graduate students postdoctoral trainees and research scientists in the biological sciences. Non-biologists seeking a comprehensive introduction to microscopy and digital imaging in the biomedical sciences will also benefit greatly from this course.

「目的に適したイメージング手法を選ぶ」ことに重点を置く。参加者はまた、顕微鏡画像の取得と解釈、一般的なエラーやアーチファクトのデータ評価、定量的な光学測定の実施についても学ぶ。

このコースは、主に生物科学の大学院生、博士研究員、研究科学者に役立ちます。また、生物医学における顕微鏡とデジタルイメージングの包括的な入門を求める非生物学者にとっても、このコースは大きな利益をもたらすでしょう。
