 ment of Molecular Neurogenetics) - Frankfurt am Main\nDr Martin Vogel shor
 t Biography :\n- Since 2008 postdoctoral fellow at the institute\n- 2006-2
 008 postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Nanoscale Systems and visiting s
 cholar with the group of Professor X.S.Xie\, Department of Chemistry and C
 hemical Biology\, Harvard University\, Cambridge MA\, USA\n- 2005-2006 pro
 ject leader Steinbeis GmbH & Co. KG für Wirtschaftsförderung\, Stuttgart
 \, Germany\n- 1999-2004 Ph.D. (physics) at the Medical Biophysics group (P
 rof. R.H.A. Fink)\, Institute of Physiology and Pathophysiology\, Universi
 ty of Heidelberg\n- 1993-1999 Master studies (physics) at the University o
 f Heidelberg\n\nSecond Harmonic Generation (SHG)\, Third Harmonic Generati
 on (THG) and Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) Microscopy are v
 ersatile imaging modalities that find use in a broad range of applications
 \, including material research and the life sciences. Readily available on
  almost any two photon microscope system\, they probe sample features that
  are complementary to standard imaging modalities\, and contrast is often 
 generated without any extrinsic staining. I will discuss the basic charact
 eristics of harmonic generation microscopy and present original data from 
 various biological samples\, including muscle\, skin and peripheral nerve 
 tissue. Finally\, I will present an approach to study the conformational c
 hange of motor proteins in muscle using intrinsic SHG signals only.
