Hour: From 12:30h to 13:30h
Place: BLR
BIO LECTURE: Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy for the in-vivo study of microtubule dynamics in the zebrafish embryo
Abstract
Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy (LSFM) can be extremely advantageous when imaging large and developing samples. At the SLN lab, we developed and implemented a LSFM system providing multiple imaging configurations, adapting to different experimental needs. We used those configurations to image the zebrafish embryo in its first hours of development and to study its yolk's microtubule (MT) network. Thanks to LSFM we could achieve a global view of a particular wave pattern acting on the superficial MT network, and obtain insights into an additional MT network deep within the yolk.
The lecture will be held in the BLR (351-P3) on April 5 from 12:30-13:30
After the lecture a networking session with pizza will take place at the picnic area, outside ICFO - An opportunity to meet and talk with colleagues in an informal setting.
Participation is open to all ICFOnians.
Participants interested in also attending the networking session should register here
