Collaboration List
Laboratory Capabilities:
Multiphoton laser scanning microscopes are equipped with mode-locked lasers providing 100 fs pulses at 80MHz with wavelengths tunable from 685 nm to 1050 nm for multiphoton imaging of UV and visible absorbing fluorophores. Both inverted microscopes and upright microscopes equipped with electrophysiology (patch-clamping) equipment are available. Other instruments include: Confocal laser scanning microscopes; microscopically resolved fluorescence emission spectroscopy; molecular diffusion measurements in two or three dimensions by fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR), fluorescence activation redistribution (FAR), and FCS; chemical kinetics by FCS with one- and two-photon excitation.
Facilities:
Optical microscopy with support for image acquisition and data analysis. Simultaneous fluorescence microscopy and gigaseal patch clamp electrophysiology. Fluctuation analysis and spectroscopy. Optics and electronics for dynamic experiments on sparse molecular preparations. Cell culture and living tissue preparation facilities.
