If you are not a night owl register for the webinar and you will receive a copy after the event :)

With the latest expansion of our Benchtop Microscope range, adding application and budget-based flexibility to the original BC43 Benchtop Confocal. We can now offer more choice and scales of imaging for Neuroscience studies. Our Benchtop Microscopes now start with motorised multi-dimensional widefield fluorescence imaging and extend into super-resolution range.

We will introduce our new products and the different imaging modalities of widefield, confocal and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. The typical biological models and experiments those modalities can be optimally used with will be discussed.

Learning Objectives

• Learn about the new extended BC43 product range
• Insight into different imaging modes (widefield, confocal and super-resolution) and how they can be applied to typical neuroscience research models and experiments.
• Understanding the achievable multiple scales of imaging.

Geraint Wilde attained a Ph.D. in Neuroscience in 1997 from the University of Southampton, UK, and then continued in the field with a postdoctoral position at the University of Warwick, UK. Having developed an interest in microscopy during his Ph.D. and post doc, he moved to the University of Liverpool, UK, to work in the laboratory of Michael White, focusing on intracellular signalling and gene expression through live-cell imaging. Geraint then left academia to pursue a commercial career in microscopy, starting as a Sales Application Specialist for general life science microscopy where he was exposed to an even broader range of microscope technology and most importantly applications. He joined Andor Technology in 2009, where he is now Hardware Business Manager for Microscopy and Life Science Cameras and the Product Manager for the Andor Benchtop Microscopes.
