Dear Colleagues,
We are now accepting proposals from scientists who would like to conduct experiments at the Advanced Imaging Center (AIC) at Janelia Research Campus. The deadline to submit a proposal is January 31, 2023 at 17:00 (US Eastern Time).
The RII Core Facilities Pilot Program is designed to support three key types of activity within the RII-managed core facilities. Each CFPP proposal will be evaluated on scientific merit and feasibility, and should focus on one or more of the following activity types:
Leica Microsystems will be offering an introductory webinar and then an on-site demonstration of their Stellaris 5 confocal microscope. See their flier for more details.

The 8th Charleston Workshop on LIGHT MICROSCOPY FOR THE BIOSCIENCES (LMB) will provide a solid introduction to the concepts and practical applications of light microscopy relevant to modern cell and molecular biology under the direction of Dr. John J. Lemasters.
QFM 2023 is an international course in fluorescence microscopy and imaging for advanced graduate students, postdoctoral trainees, imaging core managers and researchers at all levels who are incorporating the technology into their laboratories.
The expansion microscopy user group brings together researchers to share experiences to enable rapid uptake of the technology. The group is open to anyone interested including all career stages and levels of experience with expansion microscopy.
These US or North American professional societies are either about microscopy or have a strong microscopy component. There are many more societies if you look outside the North American region of
It can be valuable to analyze image data to count or measure features found in microscopy images. There are a number of campus resources for image analysis that you might not be aware of:
As core facility managers we often encounter people who are looking for an instrument that will help them answer a specific research question. There are a number of possible outcomes:
ImageJ is a free and very capable image analysis software made available from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The software was written by Wayne
