μLectures is a new, monthly seminar series designed to enhance researchers’ understanding of the fundamental workings and principles of microscopy. Each session, lasting 30 minutes, will focus on a specific concept or topic within microscopy. The practical information presented aims to deepen researchers’ comprehension of their microscopy experiments, giving them better overview of the options available and enabling them to improve their experimental design, and more effectively identify and resolve potential issues.
