MBL Light Microscopy Bootcamp (Oct 5-19, 2025) Woods Hole MA

The goal of this course is to empower graduate students in the Life Sciences to use light microscopy as a powerful experimental tool in their own research.  The course will consist of a mixture of didactic lectures, discussions and hands-on practice with the emphasis on practice over theory. In the first half of the course, daily lectures will introduce basic concepts, followed by intensive hands-on experience with different optical systems, microscopes, specimens and imaging modalities.  In the second half of the course, lectures will cover more advanced topics, such as image deconvolution, super resolution microscopy, photokinetics, and single molecule approaches, and lab time will be devoted to a set of modular projects in which students have the opportunity to choose and explore more advanced topics of interest.
