Asylum Research, a manufacturer of advanced atomic force microscopes (AFMs), announces its AFM in Biology Class which will be held April 30 to May 2, 2008 in Santa Barbara, California. The class is open to all Atomic Force Microscopy users that want to increase their knowledge of AFM in biology and life sciences.
“We cover all the essential AFM topics that biologists need and want to learn about— from sample preparation to advanced imaging and force measurements,” said Dr. Irène Revenko, Applications Scientist and class director. “With our extensive hands-on sessions, biologists get a better understanding of operating the AFM. The class is fun, with a good mix of lecture and equipment time.”
“This is one of the best AFM classes of its genre,” commented Dr. Bernard Lim, MD, PhD, Mayo Clinic.
“There is almost a one to one ratio of instructor to student and one of the best features is the ample hands-on experience. Real experiments based on the problems participants brought to the course were conducted—very well organized. ”
