Confocal Microscopy Workshop: 2D Acquisition and Spectral Separation - James Hayden, BA, RBP, FBCA

Confocal is an advanced form of fluorescence microscopy which allows researchers to non-destructively focus through a cell or tissue specimen while acquiring a stack of extremely sharp images. In Part 1 of this virtual demonstration workshop, James Hayden, the Managing Director of Imaging Shared Resource at The Wistar Institute in Philadelphia, PA takes advantage of the need to meet remotely by inviting you to see how confocal images are created in their lab. This is an exciting opportunity to take a look under the hood at what has become a staple instrument in biological microscopy. To get the most out of the workshop please watch the two Confocal training videos. These will orient you to the instrument.
