PRINCIPLES OF FLUORESCENCE TECHNIQUES COURSE 2004.
LAMBS, Department of Physics, University of Genoa, June 14-16, 2004.
The use and application of fluorescence techniques is increasing daily
both in the academia and in industry. The Principles of Fluorescence
Techniques course will outline the basic concepts of fluorescence
techniques and the successful utilization of the currently available
commercial instrumentation.
The course is designed for students who utilize fluorescence
instrumentation and techniques, as well as for researchers
and industrial scientists who intend to deepen their knowledge of
fluorescence techniques. The theoretical lectures delivered by key
scientists in the field are complemented by the direct utilization of
steady state and lifetime fluorescence instrumentation provided by
leading companies.
It is recommended that participants have at least a bachelor's degree
in the life science, physical sciences or engineering before attending
this course. Topics addressed in this course include:
Basic Definitions and Principles of Fluorescence
Fluorescence Polarization
Time- resolved Fluorescence
Instrumentation
Data Manipulation and Data Analysis
Fiber Optic Sensors
Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy
Lifetime Imaging
Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy
Multiphoton excitation microscopy and spectroscopy
Quantum dots
Instructors: Enrico Gratton (The University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign), David M. Jameson (University of Hawaii at Manoa),
