NanoVision Summit on “Single Molecule Analysis and Super-resolution Microscopy”

TIRF – Single molecule – SMLM

Together with ChipNano We are excited to invite you to the NanoVision Summit on Single Molecule and Super-resolution in Heidelberg on the 26th of May at EMBL Heidelberg.
This event aims to bring together experts in super-resolution and advanced optical microscopy to share their knowledge, best practices, and the latest in the field. The main focus of the summit is on advanced optical microscopy with special emphasis on TIRF-based single molecule methods and super resolution microscopy Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy has become a powerful technique for studying single-molecule dynamics and biological processes occurring close to cellular membranes. However, one of the key limitations of traditional TIRF is the inhomogeneous illumination intensity, small field of view (FOV), which restricts its application for multi-scale imaging and super-resolution studies. Chip NanoImaging’ multi-mode waveguides integrated into a photonic chip, allowing for uniform TIRF illumination over a large FOV. The novel technology allows for more ultra-pure evanescent excitation, opening new possibilities for super-resolution imaging and studying population dynamics across ultra-large FOV. This development is particularly valuable in the context of single-molecule imaging, where high spatial resolution and homogeneous excitation are crucial for accurate measurements.
This summit is a great opportunity to stay on top of the latest developments in a fast-changing field. Join us for the chance to connect with like-minded individuals, share knowledge and insights, and discover cutting-edge super-resolution techniques that can aid your research and career. This is a hybrid event, with the last session exclusively in-person to facilitate deeper discussions and meaningful interactions including the possibility of hands-on sessions.

Please choose how you want to participate in the registration form.
