Leica Microsystems and BioTechniques have organized a free web-seminar 
in September that may be of interest to you:

Exploring Neurons and Synapses: Imaging Tools and Techniques

Date:  16th September 2014
Time:  1:00pm U.S. Eastern Time
Duration:  60 minutes
http://tinyurl.com/exploringneurons

Featured Speakers:

Silvio Rizzoli 
Professor; Group Leader, STED Microscopy of Synaptic Function 
Department of Neuro- and Sensory Physiology, 
European Neuroscience Institute, 
University of Göttingen Medical Center 

Valentin Nagerl 
Professor of Neuroscience and Bioimaging 
Interdisciplinary Institute for Neuroscience (IINS), 
University of Bordeaux 

In the coming years, considerable effort and resources will be directed at 
understanding the neural connections of the brain. During this webinar, we 
will examine many of the tools being used to study how neurons interact 
with one another at their synapses. 

This event will provide both experienced and novice researchers with an 
excellent overview of the current optical imaging methods driving 
neuroscience today. 

This webinar features:
- the latest applications of imaging technology for visualizing synapse 
structure in order to study synaptic plasticity, and for analyzing synaptic 
vesicle recycling and the localization of synaptic proteins 
- a live question and answer session

Very best regards,
