  R.H.A. Fink)\, Institute of Physiology and Pathophysiology\, University o
 f Heidelberg\n    1993-1999 Master studies (physics) at the University 
 of Heidelberg\nSecond Harmonic Generation (SHG)\, Third Harmonic Generatio
 n (THG) and Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) Microscopy are ve
 rsatile 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 g
 enerated without any extrinsic staining. I will discuss the basic characte
 ristics of harmonic generation microscopy and present original data from v
 arious biological samples\, including muscle\, skin and peripheral nerve t
 issue. Finally\, I will present an approach to study the conformational ch
 ange of motor proteins in muscle using intrinsic SHG signals only.
