Intro Seminar – Impetux SENSOCELL: Calibration-free Optical Trap

When:
November 25, 2024 @ 15:00 – 16:00
2024-11-25T15:00:00+01:00

The Imaging and Optics Facility is expanding its equipment park with the addition of an Impetux SENSOCELL Optical Trap system. This unique technology enables mechanical measurements to be conducted without the need for calibration steps, allowing for force probing assays under in-vivo conditions. The system will be integrated with a new Crest Optics X-Light V3 high-speed Spinning Disk microscope.

There will be two different events, the first one oriented to the general aspects of the Optical tweezers technology and the second one showcasing real applications on the new setup, after its installation.
