Dear Colleagues,
 
Registration is open for the course “Introduction to Electron Microscopy for 
Life Sciences”, July 5-8, 2016.
 
Instructor: Dr. Emma Rossinyol-Casals (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 
Spain).
 
 This course gives an introduction to both Transmission Electron Microscopy 
(TEM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It covers electron microscopy 
principles and theory, as well as different fields of application, operation 
modes and image interpretation.
It is aimed at beginners and intermediate users of electron microscopes in life 
sciences. The course has a limited number of participants (12) to allow divide 
them into small groups during practical sessions.
After this course, the participants should be able to align the microscopes, 
identify the most common aberrations and understand the principles of image 
generation in electron microscopy. Participants can also bring some samples 
already prepared on TEM grids or SEM stubs.
