Proceeding to the Workshop we will hold the Linz Winter School, mainly dedicated to young researchers and beginners in the field: 

Program outline - Winter School

This is a school for young scientists and newcomers to learn about advanced atomic force microscopy techniques and fluorescence microscopy methods:
- High resolution imaging of live cells and bacteria
- High-speed atomic force microscopy
- Chemical functionalization of atomic force microscopy tips 
- Single molecule force spectroscopy
- Topography and recognition imaging
- Scanning microwave microscopy
- Single molecule fluorescence imaging
- FRET microscopy and electrophysiology in living cells
- Combined atomic force & fluorescence microscopy

Tuesday, January 31 - Talk Session 
    Basic principles and biological applications
Wednesday, February 1 - Demo Session 
    Live demonstrations
    Evening: Social event in typical Austrian winery and restaurant
Thursday, February 2 - Hands-on Session 
    For Hands-on Sessions participants are invited to bring their own
samples

Important dates
