DESCRIPTION:Prof. Sara Abrahamsson\, University of California Santa Cruz 
 (US)\n<< Registration below >>\n\nAbstract. The conflict between the three
 -dimensional nature of the world and the two-dimensionality of the microsc
 ope image is a classical problem in biological imaging and in the field of
  Optics. Aberration-corrected multifocus microscopy (MFM) uniquely address
 es this problem by truly simultaneously acquiring data from multiple plane
 s of an object at the full resolution that the optical microscope can atta
 in. Using diffractive Fourier optics\, the image beam from a wide-field mi
 croscope is multiplexed and refocused and the 3D focal stack is captured o
 n one or multiple high-speed cameras. MFM is compatible with super-resolut
 ion and localization microscopy as well as polarization microscopy and pro
 vides high-speed 3D imaging of living specimens without the need for image
  reconstruction.\n\nBiography. Sara Abrahamsson received her PhD in 2012 f
 rom the University of California San Francisco in the laboratory of Mats G
 ustafsson and was a postdoc and Leon Levy fellow at the Rockefeller Univer
 sity in New York in the laboratory of Cori Bargmann. In 2017\, she became 
 Assistant Professor at the University of California Santa Cruz\, where her
  group designs and develops 3D and super-resolution microscopy systems to 
 visualize the dynamic processes of life with high spatial and temporal res
 olution. Applications of her group’s imaging systems range from function
 al neuronal imaging in small model organisms to visualizing transcription 
 inside the cell nucleus.\n\nThe talk is followed by an aperitif. \nRegist
 ration appreciated\nMore info here
