Workshop on Integrated CLEM London

A workshop focused on Correlative Light and Scanning Electron Microscopy (CLEM), hosted by Phenon World, will be held on June 24 at the Lincoln’s Inn Fields Laboratories of the Francis Crick Institute, London. The workshops will highlight how the Delphi Microscope - an integrated system for CLEM studies developed jointly by DELMIC and PhenomWorld - has overcome some of the experimental challenges of combining techniques to provide data on both structural and functional information.

The morning will comprise a series of lectures by leading microscopists from the Francis Crick Institute and King's College London. These will be of general interest and open, free of charge, to all. The talks will look at several stages of workflow: from sample preparation through to image processing and analysis. In the afternoon, there will be smaller hands-on sessions for users to experience the Delphi system, the SECOM as well as the Phenom ProX.

The speakers come with a wealth of experience. Lucy Collinson, Christopher Peddie, and Matt Russell work at the Francis Crick Institute’s Electron Microscopy facility in London. The facility works with over thirty research groups, imaging samples as diverse as proteins, DNA, cells, tissues and model organisms. The group uses light, electron and X-ray microscopes, and specialises in Correlative Light and EM (CLEM), Integrated Light and EM (ILEM), Serial Block Face SEM (SBF SEM), Focused Ion Beam SEM (FIB SEM), cryo soft X-ray tomography (SXY) and advanced image analysis. Roland Fleck is working at the Centre for Ultrastructural Imaging at King's College London. The centre supports applied and basic research in the life and physical sciences as well as providing a Diagnostic Electron Microscopy service to the NHS.
