Dear Colleagues,<br>
Please find below an annoucement for an advanced training course in
microscopies, to take place in January 2016 in Montpellier, France.
Please don't hesitate to forward this email to the colleagues from
your institutes interested in these topics.<br>
Sincerely<br>
<br>

lang="EN-US">FranceBioImaging and the GDR2588 will organize
FBIAT 2016, : an advanced, hands-on training course on
applications of cellular imaging to biological questions, from
January 18<sup>th</sup> to 22<sup>th</sup> 2016 in Montpellier,
France.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

lang="EN-US">The aim of FBIAT is to show how key biological
questions can be addressed with advanced cellular imaging
techniques. Thus it is not only a training course on
state-of-the-art imaging techniques, but additionally aims at
training people on how building an experimental strategy that
uses these techniques, alone or in combination, to address a
specific biological problem.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

lang="EN-US">In the morning, the course will have plenary
lectures that introduce specific techniques and how these can
solve biologically-relevant questions. In the afternoon,
hands-on practicals will train attendants on these techniques,
providing a complete view of the experimental flow, from sample
preparation to data analysis, interpretation and, when relevant,
modelization. Advanced microscopy techniques covered during the
workshop include : super-resolution microscopies (PALM / STORM,
Structured Illumination), Single Particle Tracking, RNA imaging,
Correlation based microscopies and Atomic Force Microscopy.
Trainees will choose a single module centered on their
biological question of interest.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

lang="EN-US">Every module will have 3 practical sessions, each
session being centered on a technique, plus one session
dedicated to data analysis. To guaranty access to set-ups and
proper training, each practical session will guest only 3
persons. The sessions will be run in parallel, such that each
module will accept 8/9 participants (45 in total for the entire
event). <o:p></o:p></span></p>

lecturers, our aim to reach an international audience.
Participants will thus be selected according to their previous
training and adequation of the course to their needs. We will
consider applications from PhD students, post-docs, staff
scientists and young PIs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
