The PFIC facility organizes a technological seminar on “Quantitave Phase Imaging – exploring the unseen” April 20^th at 10:00 am in Espace Maurice Tubiana at Gustave Roussy, Villejuif.

Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI) is a novel label-free microscopy technique bringing a completely new contrast into the live-cell imaging field. It allows extracting of information-rich quantitative data from unlabeled cells and monitoring their dry mass in non-invasive experiments.

This seminar will explain the principle of technology and present broad range of applications focusing on the label-free analysis of cell growth, cell death, cell migration etc. Apart from cell biology research, studies of biomolecular condensates and biomaterials will be discussed.

The seminar will be held in English by Zuzana Nováková (Telight application specialist).
