Join CNB-CSIC and Leica Microsystems for a hands-on workshop exploring electron microscopy sample preparation with the UC Enuity ultramicrotome.
Combining technical instruction, live demonstrations and practical sessions, the workshop gives you the opportunity to explore ultramicrotomy applications for Life Sciences and materials research. Work directly with UC Enuity and evaluate prepared samples using EM imaging.
What to expect
An introduction to the UC Enuity ultramicrotomy platform and its applications
Array tomography, volume EM, CLEM-fluorescence and cryo-FIB lamella preparation
Block-face and cryo preparation for SEM, FIB-SEM, AFM and optical microscopy
Diamond trimming knives
Sectioning approaches for polymers, coatings, elastomers, multilayer materials and composites
The opportunity to bring or submit your own samples for sectioning and discussion
Workshop format
The workshop combines technical instruction, live demonstrations and practical sessions with UC Enuity. Attendance is limited to 30 participants.
