The Carl Zeiss Microscopy Online Campus explores the fascinating world of optical microscopy and provides the necessary background to understand both the basic concepts and advanced principles.
Basic Microscopy
Learn more about the basic concepts of microscopy like primary and secondary lenses of modern compound microscopes
Spectral Imaging
Find information about spectral imaging combined with linear unmixing, an important staple in the microscopist's toolbox.
Optical Sectioning
Inform your self about sectioning, high level contrast and permit three-dimensional reconstructions.
Superresolution
New and exciting techniques have been introduced that are now collectively termed superresolution microscopy and feature both lateral and axial resolution measured in the tens of nanometers and even less.
Live-Cell Imaging
Learn more about the increasingly use of live-cell imaging techniques to provide clues into the fundamental nature of cellular and tissue structure and function.
Fluorescent Proteins
Fluorescent protein development strategies are centered on fine-tuning existing variants and developing new proteins emitting in the red wavelengths.
Microscope Light Sources
Find more information about fundamentals of illumination sources for optical microscopy like Tungsten-Halogen lamps, Mercury Arc lamps and many more.
Interactive Tutorials
Gain further insights and increase your knowledge with the help of interactive tutorials.
