Training

We provide a training session with new users.

• For optical microscopy training, a one-on-one training session takes up to 2 hours for the Olympus BX53 microscope and a whole day for the Olympus FV1000 confocal microscope and PE spinning disk confocal microscope.
• For SEM and TEM, new users will be asked to take the BIF Canvas online training course (self-paced course) prior to one-on-one hands-on training sessions (3 sessions of 3 hours each).
• For the sample preparation and microtome training, it takes at least a half day for the sample preparation technique and a whole day for microtome training.
