Summer school at the PO-Cytology/Imaging platform of the IJPB in the framework of the SPS network

Advanced Plant Imaging - API: From super-resolution to fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy - 29/06/25-04/07/25, INRAE, Versailles
The API summer school is organized by the Saclay Plant Sciences (SPS) network, one of the largest European plant sciences communities and is hosted by the "The Plant Observatory - Cytology/Imaging" platform PO-Cyto of the IJPB.

Microscopy is a fundamental tool for understanding the functioning of plants at the cellular to molecular scale. Recent technological advances (super-resolution, fluorescence lifetime imaging, biosensors...) now make it possible to address new scientific questions. This Summer School will provide theoretical and practical insights into these aspects for 20 outstanding and enthusiastic PhD students or young postdoctoral researchers divided in small groups. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different modalities, sample preparation, image acquisition, and data processing throughout the week.
