This module is designed for students who wish to understand and become critically aware of the principles, practice and applications of rapidly developing imaging technologies. Particular focus is given to transmission and fluorescent light-based imaging approaches. A series of lectures will inform about the concepts of imaging and microscopy; importance of resolution and its limits; optical components; application of histology, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence; basics of confocal microscopy, light sheet microscopy, super resolution microscopy, multi-photon microscopy, high content screening microscopy; techniques in light microscopy and live cell imaging; and also the relationship between light microscopy and electron microscopy. Complementary workshop sessions will provide context to lectures, allowing students to appreciate the practicalities of specific imaging modalities.
