• Cryo-EM Beyond The Nobel

  16 to 20 September 2019
  Nottingham – United Kingdom

  There can be no doubt that Cryo-(T)EM is a hot topic following the 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for its development. In fact many cryo-techniques have been around for over 40 years and are in use in both academic and industrial settings being applied to a full range of soft matter and materials samples beyond single particle analysis of proteins. This course looks to educate scientists and engineers to the full range of cryo-techniques, who are looking to characterise, analyse and understand structure / function of their samples where stabilisation of volatiles (often water) is required. Topics covered are expected to include:

  • Sample preparation / stabilisation (high-pressure freezing / plunge freezing)
  • Freeze-substitution / ultramicrotomy
  • Cryo-fluorescence microscopy / correlative microscopy
  • Cryo-TEM
  • Cryo-SEM / Cryo-FIB-SEM
  • Cryo X-Ray microscopy
  • Cryo-TOF-SIMS

  The course will be delivered by an international group of world-renowned speakers, staff from the NMRC, Nottingham and representatives from many commercial partners. The course is a mix of both lecture style presentations and hands-on practical sessions, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and explore the range of cryo-techniques on offer. By the end of the week attendees will have a good understanding of cryo-principles and appropriate usage of cryo-techniques as well as developing a network of contacts for the future.

• Getting the most from your Confocal Course 2019

  18 and 19 July 2019
  University of York – York – United Kingdom

  This 2 day annual confocal course utilises many different sample types and fluorescent probes (DNA stains, classic antibody labels and fluorescent proteins) which are chosen to best demonstrate particular problems and techniques.

  Focus is always on the techniques they enable and the problems they generate, which will be applicable to any sample types. The 2-days consist of short tutorials followed by hands-on practice.

  Day 1 takes participants through the basic principles of confocal microscopy and then trains through hands-on practice how to configure and image multicolour, multidimensional samples using a confocal microscope.

  Day 2 builds on the experiences of day 1 and enables participants to try FRAP and spectral profiling.

  The Light Microscopy summer school is an annual, residential three day course held at the University of York covering the principles of light microscopy. Participants are also trained in practical issues surrounding light microscopy. After introductory presentations, the course is taught predominantly through hands-on practical sessions.

  The course is suitable for both novices and more experienced users wanting to gain a greater understanding of the microscope and feedback every year is always fantastic. Students came from a range of backgrounds in 2018, within both research and commercial organisations. All benefited greatly from the Course and left with increased understanding and skills.

  The course is immediately followed by a two day hands-on Confocal Course - Getting the most from your Confocal.
