Course Information

Description

Frontiers in Experimental and Imaging is an interdisciplinary, laboratory-based course which seeks to explore the organization of cells and tissues using microscopy. Through a series of lectures, laboratory experiments, and student-designed research projects, students will learn experimental design, cutting edge methods (such as expansion microscopy), and data analysis. With microscopes in hand, we will venture from the fertilization of the zygote, to complex architecture of the brain, and to reversing the subcellular defects of aging.  Join us for discovery and experimentation.
