You are invited to attend a live, interactive, web-based instructional
seminar:
==========================================================
"Quantitative Image and Data Acquisition for Fluorescent Specimens"
Presented by Brian Matsumoto, Ph.D., University of California, Santa Barbara
==========================================================
Details are below. Connection lines are limited so reserve yours now. There
is no charge to participate in this on-line seminar.
When:
=====================
Monday, 3-March, 1:30PM (New York time; 10:30 AM California time.)
Duration: Approximately 1 hour.
Pre-register (required) at:

Details:
=====================
Attendees will learn about issues affecting the quantitative accuracy of
fluorescence images acquired through a microscope and will pick up tips and
suggestions for improving image quality, making better use of the camera's
light collection abilities, and will learn the nomenclature associated with
digital imaging. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to
characterize and optimize their optical system, camera, and software. Bring
your questions to this live, interactive web-based seminar.
- What is bit depth and when/why does it matter?
- What is dynamic range?
- Characterizing your camera's linear range.
- Noise and other sources of data uncertainty.
- Maximizing your camera's light collection capabilities.
- Setting the best exposures.
- Correcting for photobleaching.
- Collecting images in 3D.
