EMBO Practical Course
Registration is not yet open for this event. If you are interested in receiving more information please register your interest.
Correlative Light and Electron Microscopy (CLEM) allows precise localisation of an event of interest within cells and tissues. During this course, we will focus on a specific method that has been developed at EMBL that enables the localisation of fluorescent proteins with high accuracy at the ultrastructural level. The course will cover both the theory and practicals of high precision CLEM, as well as opportunities to discuss their research with CLEM experts and receive practical and troubleshooting advice.
This course is intended for scientists with experience in EM who want to further develop their skills in high-accuracy correlated microscopy.
The course will combine lectures and hands-on practical work covering all steps in the work flow including cryogenic sample preparation, ultramicroscopy, image registration and electron tomography.
Participants will gain hands-on experience with the CLEM methods and learn tips from the people who developed the methods.
“The course was excellent. All the lectures were spot on with a lot of practical information. I felt very lucky that I could have attended the course.” – Paulina Cherek, University of Exeter, UK
“It is a great practical course, because I can learn new techniques and feel confident that I can do it after returning to my home institution. Also knowing that I will be able to contact the experts if help is needed. Thank you!” – Xinran Liu, Yale University, USA

EMBL wishes to warn sponsors of EMBL conferences and courses of fraudulent schemes purporting to offer sponsorship opportunities on behalf of EMBL or affiliated with EMBL officials. One current scam campaign of which we are aware is conducted using the name ‘Judy Eastman’ (judy@gopcontact.a2hosted.com) and entails approaches to sponsors offering sponsorship opportunities on EMBL’s behalf. Please be kindly advised that all relevant communication regarding sponsorship of EMBL conferences, symposia and courses is handled by EMBL directly and is sent from an official EMBL account. EMBL does not work with any external providers on sponsorship acquisition.
