Imaging Structure & Function in the Nervous System

Intensive lecture and laboratory course on in vivo light microscopy for neuroscience, especially functional imaging with genetically encoded indicators. Participants learn optics, lasers and microscope design, build their own two-photon and light-sheet microscopes, and work with multiphoton and light-sheet imaging, holographic stimulation with spatial light modulators, imaging combined with optogenetics, head-mounted and fibre-optic methods, structural imaging and spatial omics, and analysis of imaging and behavioural data in mice and zebrafish. Late-stage PhD students, postdocs and early-career faculty may apply; students attend all sessions and reside on campus.
