"Applying New Imaging Techniques to Your Research: Advice from the Experts" (Part 2, featuring Dr. Hari Shroff)

The resolution of light microscopy was long thought to be limited by the wavelength of light, but recent advances have far surpassed this barrier and the most recent technologies are now allowing for the super-resolution imaging of biomolecules at a subcellular level, including visualizing membrane glycoproteins, observing physical interactions between proteins, and studying cellular processes in 3-D. This webinar will explore how some of the latest technologies can be applied and implemented to advance your research.

Our expert panel from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Intramural Research Program (IRP) will:
• Share their experiences using cutting-edge microscopy technologies
• Discuss the advantages, challenges, and limitations of current systems
• Provide advice on how you can best apply these technologies

Hari Shroff, Ph.D., is a Senior Investigator in the Section on High Resolution Optical Imaging at the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering. For more about Dr. Shroff's research, visit http://irp.nih.gov/our-research/resea...

The IRP is the internal research program of the NIH, known for its synergistic approach to biomedical science. With 1,200 principal investigators and more than 4,000 postdoctoral fellows conducting basic, translational, and clinical research, the IRP is the largest biomedical research institution on Earth. Its unique funding environment means the IRP can facilitate opportunities to conduct both long-term and high-impact science that would otherwise be difficult to undertake.
