Common Vision Workshop: Imaging in the Millennium Science Complex

Common Vision Workshop: Imaging in the Millennium Science Complex Wednesday January 25th 2017 3rd Floor Commons, Millennium Science Complex _ The basement of Millennium Science Complex houses microscopy facilities of the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences and the Materials Characterization Lab of the Materials Research Institute. _Collectively, these core facilities possess a world-class collection of instruments and expert personnel. _However, there is often little understanding of what the "other side" has and can do -- a cultural divide we aim to break down through a series of initiatives we call Common Vision. _ Following this workshop, the Huck Institutes will announce availability of matching funds for life sciences researchers to explore and test instruments and methods that are novel for their research and perhaps their field. _ Sign up, learn, participate, expand. _ Agenda _ _ 8:45 _ 9:00 a.m. _______________ Coffee and Bagels 9:00 _ 9:05 a.m. _______________ Welcome and Introductions _ 9:05 - 10:25________________________ Session I _ Jordan Lerach _ 2D and 3D Molecular Imaging with Tof-SIMS _ Max Wetherington _ Raman Spectroscopy - Lighting the Way for Medical Diagnostics _ Tim Tighe _ Applications of Scanning Probe Microscopy in Life Sciences _ Trevor Clark _ "Scanning Electron and Ion Microscopy of Soft Materials" _ 10:25 - 10:40______ ______________ Break.
