Engineering Biology in Cambridge

 

The practical course is aimed at microscopy users and developers who wish to connect with imaging experts and core facilities in and around Cambridge. We are looking to provide an overview of new and existing imaging techniques, in addition to identifying multidisciplinary opportunities to facilitate scientific collaborations. The course will also provide a link to microscopy companies for the discussion of emerging techniques and applications for new scientific questions.
