OBJECTIVES
The Department of Biotechnology and Department of Medical Sciences & Technology at IIT Madras are organizing the 2nd edition of the Annual Workshop series in India on:
1) Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)
2) Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM)
3) Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS)
4) Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP)
Hands-on instructions on wide-field and confocal microscopy systems
Internationally recognized faculty and microscopy support specialists
Best imaging and analysis solutions
Individual problem solving, discussion and trouble-shooting
Free access to training toolkit, reference guides, and image analysis software.
The F4 Advanced Bioimaging Workshop started in 2023 in collaboration with Dr. Ammasi Periasamy, University of Virginia, a world-renowned expert in FRET and FLIM, along with several academic experts and industrial partners. The success of the 1st F4 Workshop encouraged us to continue this endeavour as an annual workshop series to introduce these advanced techniques to students and researchers and enable them to acquire and analyze microscopy data through hands-on training.
