How do I know what microscope I should use?

When you are designing new microscopy experiments please schedule a consultation meeting with Dr. Christina Baer and SCOPE scientific staff. Book a meeting. Here are some things to prepare for this meeting:

  1. What is the question you are trying to answer?
  2. Are you modeling your experiment off of a published experiment/figure? If so, please provide this. 
  3. What are your hoping to quantify from your images? We are highly experienced with this and this information can significantly improve the reccomendations for your experimental designs. 

In this meeting we will help you determine what system would work best for you, (if applicable) what fluors are compatible with that system, assistance with magnification and resolution that you need, as well as how to quantify that data, and pitfalls to avoid in order to make you the most successful.
