    An Introduction to Live Cell Imaging

    The term live cell imaging collectively refers to the technologies used to capture images of cells in a living, active state, either as individual static pictures or as time-lapse series. Correspondingly, the applications of live cell imaging can be divided in two broad categories: image recording of cells in their natural, living state observing and…

    An Introduction to Cardiac Optical Mapping

    What Is Optical Mapping and How Is It Used? Synchronisation of the contraction of heart muscle is essential for the efficient pumping of blood through the circulatory system. Cardiac contraction is controlled by the regulated spread of electrical impulses from cell-to-cell within the heart.  In pathological conditions, these electrical impulses can become disordered and lead…

  • Optocardiography: Optical Imaging of Cardiac Physiology

    In this webinar, you will learn how to use optical imaging for functional cardiac physiological mapping of transmembrane potential, calcium handling, and metabolism. The main aspects covered in the webinar include: How to design an effective optocardiography system and select optimal fluorescence probes for your research needs using open source hardware and software. Troubleshooting tips…

  • Controlling Color Image Quality in Microscopy: Start at the Beginning

    The only constant with microscopy imaging is variability in both color and image quality. You only need to look at images in journal articles, posters, around your laboratory, or compare your images with a colleague’s—the evidence is staggering. Interestingly, variability doesn’t generally come from the digital camera, rather it comes from our use of imaging…

  • Color Image Quality Control in Microscopy

    In this webinar, you will learn about color reproduction in microscopy images—and how to fix it if your color reproduction goes awry. The main points we will cover are: The reasons that could color reproduction go wrong in your microscopy images How to correct your microscopy images with inappropriate color reproduction How to be ethical…

    Science on Wheels: How to Bring Science to the Masses with a Mobile Lab!

    Ask a scientist why they love their job, and they will likely tell you it’s because they get to see and discover amazing things! Why, then, does science class in school never reflect this? A major problem identified in our society is lack of science interest and literacy. Mobile labs are helping to turn the…

    Getting Correct Color from Your Microscope Camera

    In this webinar you will learn: Proper and ethical post-processing of microscopy images. The importance of gamma in microscopy images. How to properly control and compensate for the factors affecting color reproduction. Abstract: Seeing is believing—or is it? When a flash doesn’t go off, a white wedding dress turns yellow. Do you believe it? Seeing…

  • Importance of Color Reproduction in Microscopy Images

    Through our eyes, seeing is not always believing. Under different lighting conditions, we tend to see the same objects as having the same color. For example, an apple will appear red whether it is lit by daylight or candlelight and a white sheet of paper will be perceived as being white regardless of the light…

    What Do I Really Need From My Microscope Camera?

    In this webinar you will learn: What is important when choosing an all-purpose camera for your widefield microscope. Abstract If you ask any vendor which camera is the best one for your microscope, they will usually tell you that it depends on your application.  But this is only a helpful response if if you are…

    Why Your Microscopy Data isn’t Quantitative and How to Fix it

    In this webinar you will learn: Several issues that may mean your microscopy images are unquantifiable. 7 steps to ensure that you generate quantifiable data from your microscope images. Abstract Any reasonably modern fluorescence microscope can produce beautiful images of your cells and tissues without too much effort.  But would you believe me if I told…

  • Unveiling the new high-resolution INFINITY3-6UR Camera

    While we have probably all moved past film cameras in favor of digital ones, many of our biology microscopes are nevertheless “stuck in time” using digital cameras based on older CCD sensors that limit the resolution, field-of-view, sensitivity, and speed of image capture. Now Lumenera Corporation is getting set to unveil a new microscopy camera…
