Frontiers in Neurophotonics
Summer School
A Summer school on advanced optical imaging and photoactivation techniques
Frontiers in Neurophotonics is an opportunity to meet fellow researchers and students from around the world, discuss and discover the latest advances in live cell optical imaging techniques put in perspective by experimental challenges in the field of neuroscience. The school combines tutorials given by experts in optics, biophotonics, and neuroscience with hands-on experiments involving advanced optical approaches to measure, manipulate and follow molecular events in brain cells and to quantify circuit and synaptic activities in several models.
Note that the trainees (graduate students, post-docs and facility managers) attending the school are selected through a competition. Applications will be evaluated by a jury on the following criteria:
*The selection committee favors the participation of students of different levels, expertise and educational backgrounds from around the world.
