The expansion microscopy user group brings together researchers to share experiences to enable rapid uptake of the technology.
In this meeting...
We will be joined by Invited Speaker Dr. Zainab Tanvir, the Imaging Facility Core Director at Rutgers University in New Jersey, USA, who'll be presenting her talk 'The Applications of ExM in Neuroscience'.
Dr. Zainab Tanvir is an assistant teaching professor in the Department of Cell Biology and Neuroscience at Rutgers University and the Director of the SAS-HGINJ Imaging Facility on Busch Campus. Her research focuses on comparative evolutionary studies, using the Mexican tetra (Astyanax mexicanus) to investigate neural adaptations in cave-dwelling and surface fish, particularly exploring maladaptive plasticity as a mechanism for rapid evolution.
The group is open to anyone interested including all career stages and levels of experience with expansion microscopy.
This series of meetings is organised in conjunction with Canada BioImaging (CBI) and BioImaging North America (BINA).
The RMS is pleased to support this user group.
