- Contents
- Light can be used to examine biological systems such as human cells, bacteria, or viruses in various ways. In this seminar, we will explore this fascinating field, such as realizations in optogenetics, model systems, and correlative approaches (Katja Zieske) as well as fluorescence, super-resolution microscopy, image analysis, and deep learning (Leonhard Möckl). Each participant will prepare a talk on one of the topics listed below (or related ones), give a talk, and discuss the topic with the other students.
Key topics covered:
1. Principles of fluorescence
2. Labeling approaches for microscopy of biological systems
3. Localization-based super-resolution microscopy
4. Single-molecule and single-particle tracking
5. STED
6. Expansion microscopy
7. Image analysis
8. Deep learning-based approaches
9. AFM
10. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy
11. Confocal microscopy + applications
12. Microfluidics
13. Lipid membranes
14. Optogenetic switches
15. Biological patterns Objectives: Understand the specific advantages and challenges of light-based approaches in biology; learn to read and contextualize publications; present and discuss scientific findings. If you want to participate in the seminar, please send an e-mail to Katja Zieske and Leonhard Möckl with your registration.
