Workshop on Advanced Correlative Light and Electron Microscopy (CLEM) methods: 5-8 December 2022
Umeå university
Workshop Content:
The workshop includes both theory lectures and practical sessions on In-resin preserved florescence for CLEM, Tokuyasu ultramicrotome sectioning combined with staining techniques on sections, Cryo-CLEM and cryo-FIB milling, as well as opportunities to discuss specific research projects and receive practical advice. Technical challenges and new ideas will be discussed, and the participants are welcome to contribute with their experiences.
