Aim of course

The lecture will introduce students to the fundamentally new microscopy concepts that are currently revolutionizing the life sciences. Following the motto ¿there is no method without its application¿ I will explain new concepts by means of recent examples from the literature. I want to make the lecture exciting for a broad audience: Therefore, in depth mathematical treatments will not be avoided, but understanding the principles will also be possible without following the maths in detail. An accompanying practical course will be offered.

Subject of course

  • Basics in Optics: the essentials in geometrical optics and wave optics, lenses and lens aberrations
  • Light microscopy: setups, resolution, image formation, contrast
  • Fluorescence microscopy
  • Discussion of state-of-the-art microscopy techniques: confocal microscopy, near-field microscopy, total internal reflection microscopy, ¿
  • Single molecule micoscopy
  • Superresolution microscopy
  • New biological applications
