National training programs in biological electron microscopy 2021-2022
Applications are invited
for various training programs in biological electron microscopy to be conducted
during 2021-2022 at Sophisticated Analytical Instrumentation Facility-New Delhi,
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi.
1. The XXXVIIth Training Program for Scientific Investigators (November 29-December 11, 2021)
The training course offers comprehensive laboratory
training on the specimen preparation, ultramicrotomy, imaging and analysis
techniques (e.g., Energy Dispersive X-Ray microanalysis) related to Scanning
and Transmission electron microscopy (SEM, TEM), immuno-electron microscopy,
and basic concepts on cryosectioning and cryo-TEM. The course offers a unique
curriculum of classroom lectures by experienced faculty and scientists, and hands
on laboratory practicals with an opportunity to discuss daily topics and problems
encountered, with technical officers/technicians in a relaxed atmosphere.
Eligibility: Ph.D/MD or M.Sc Degree in Life Sciences with 2-3 years of research experience in relevant field. The applicant should state clearly the nature of the research project in which he/she is involved (in 200 words) and why training in Electron Microscopy is necessary for pursuing further research.
2. Summer Training program in electron microscopy (May 16-June 15, 2022)
This 4-week course is specially designed to train the participants to be well versed in specimen preparation, ultramicrotomy, operation, maintenance of TEM and SEM, EDS, and digital imaging.
