Build a Microscope
How does a microscope work?Why can I see cells better if I use phase contrast?
What is fluorescence?
Which objective should I choose, and how do I get the best image of my sample?
Optical microscopy is one of the most widely used tools in biology. In this course, we cover the basics of how a microscope works and explore different techniques, such as darkfield, phase contrast and fluorescence microscopy. Through a combination of theory and practical sessions in which students build a microscope step by step, we build an intuitive understanding of optical microscopes.
The course takes place once a year in September / October as a block course (6 CP) and is open to students of biological sciences and other subjects. No previous knowledge of optics is required. Please contact Laura Aradilla (laura.aradillazapata[at]uni-saarland.de) if you are interested!
The next course will take place from Sep 21st to Oct 11th, 2023.
