Overview
- Introduction to analyzing the wide array of quantitative data obtainable through microscopy
- Students will learn how to obtain high-quality microscopy images
- Students will practice image analysis techniques on different organisms and biological systems
- Students will also learn cutting edge research from guest lectures, engage in a journal club, create their own publication-quality figures, and create a final project where they pitch their own microscopy and image analysis experiment
