About This Webinar
In this webinar, Max Eisele, Ph.D., will give an introduction to two-photon microscopy and highlight the potential of multiphoton excitation as compared to the standard fluorescence microscopy technology.
Use-case examples will be presented that highlight the benefits of two-photon microscopy for deep-tissue and in vivo imaging. After this basic introduction, Max Eisele will guide attendees through the setup of a simple and cost-efficient microscope, including a selection of suitable microscopy platforms, as well as an overview on suitable light sources for general and more specific applications. Special emphasis will be placed on cost-efficient single-wavelength fiber-lasers and their advantages for dedicated applications — for example, for calcium imaging in neuroscience.
Finally, he will provide a hands-on demonstration of integrating a single-wavelength fiber-laser at 920 nm into a two-photon microscope that is optimized to the excitation and detection of green fluorescent proteins, typically used in neuroscience applications. Don’t miss this opportunity: Learn about the benefits of two-photon microscopy, learn about a simple two-photon microscope design, and see how easy and quick it is to set up a dedicated two-photon microscope.
Who should attend:
R&D scientists, engineers, educators, and others involved and interested in two-photon microscopy applications and design, especially for neuroscience imaging.
