Title: CALM-Supporting Biological Research Through Microscopy
Speakers: Pedro Bronze de Firmino, PhD, Facility Manager, Centre for Advanced Light Microscopy, McMaster University
Mouhanad Babi, PhD, Imaging Specialist, Centre for Advanced Light Microscopy, McMaster University
“The Centre for Advanced Light Microscopy (CALM) was established in 2021 with a mandate to support research and training in the science, engineering and life sciences by providing access to cutting-edge light microscopy instrumentation and techniques, expert training technical support, and imaging services. One year after opening its doors, CALM has trained over 240 users and has incorporated new equipment, bringing the total number of microscopes managed by the facility to 15 by March 2023. The instrumentation and technical expertise at CALM have aided in the development of workflows to image samples and address scientific questions for science, engineering, and life sciences. In this presentation, we will provide an update on the imaging capabilities at CALM and showcase sample research workflows developed in collaboration with users. We continue to build partnerships with groups aiming to expand the use of microscopy for their research, and look forward to helping you with your future imaging needs.”
The seminar will be hosted by Joshua Koenig, PhD
