Alex from the @FACS_Imaging team of the @MPIAGE is also attending the @zeiss_micro tissue clearing workshop at @ISTAustria_IOF. She is gaining expertise in tissue clearing and lightsheet microscopy to support our users in Cologne. #tissueclearing #microscopy
We had a fantastic start of the @zeiss_micro tissue clearing workshop @ISTAustria 👀 There is still a lot to explore on the sample preparations and imaging: Lightsheet 7, Lattice SIM3 (demo)or Axiozoom-ApotomPlus(demo) 🤩 🔬🪄#tissueclearing #jointhecommunity
