bioimaging and optics platform ptbiop

First contact and TRAININGS:

- I've a project and/or a nice sample but I never did microscopy in my life, how can I access the BIOp microscopes?

=> For a first contact, you will need an appointment, through the request form, with the head of the BIOp (Dr. Arne Seitz) and speak about the best way to take your images and get trained depending on your experimental question.
=> For advanced users, the use and training on another machine, for a different scientific question, can be done directly with the concerned BIOP staff depending on the microscope. But a a request form is still needed.

working at the BIOp:

I've questions to get the best images on my experiment.

=> you can ask any question to the BIOp team concerning microscopy and image processing between 8am and 18pm.

I want to do image processing on a high number of images.

=> The best way is to take few images, and ask the image processing team if there are any changes to do on the acquisitions before taking all the images.

When I finished my session, what do I do?

=>If somebody is working after you on the scope, just log off and set Argon Lasers to minimum.
=> If it's free till next day, switch everything off.
