[lm-announce] Zeiss workshop: transmitted light techniques (Weds 16th Nov)

[sswift]

Dear All,

I have arranged a workshop for Wednesday 16th November for people  
interested in transmitted light techniques, some of which are not  
available in the Light Microscopy Facility but may well be present on  
the microscopes you have in your own labs or in TC.  We will run 2  
sessions, morning and afternoon, comprising a brief introductory talk  
followed by hands on training in kohler illumination, DIC, phase  
contrast and darkfield illumination on a range of Zeiss equipment.   
I've asked Ziess to bring a whole range of stuff with them from basic  
stereo microscopes through to the higher end Axioscopes so that you  
can get your hands on equipment across the whole product range.

This workshop is aimed at absolutely everyone, regardless of  
experience, who has an interest in brightfield imaging and contrast  
techniques.  Space is limited, so please get back to me as soon as you  
can if you wish to attend.  Timing is approx at the moment, but we  
hope to run the morning session from 10am to 12.45pm and the afternoon  
session from 1.30pm to 4.30pm.  Those of you attending the workshop  
are welcome to join us for a buffet lunch from 12.45 to 1.30pm, which  
will also give you a chance to catch up with the Zeiss area manager,  
Mark Montgomery and ask any questions you may have about Zeiss  
microscopes or microscopy in general.

Best regards,
Sam
