About the Course

This course covers the theory and application of light microscopy in a systematic but non-mathematical way, with an emphasis on state-of-the-art imaging approaches for neuroscience research. We will have morning lectures and afternoon hands-on lab modules guided by experts in the field. We encourage applications from senior PhD students, post-doctoral fellows, research scientists, and early-career faculty members from diverse backgrounds who are interested in neuroscience.
