For repeated use of confocal/multiphoton and laser capture microdissection instruments, users should email Dr. Alenka Lovy-Wheeler to schedule a training session.  In order to reserve time on the Leica, Nikon, or Arcturus instruments, you will need to sign up at least several days prior to use. For experienced users (i.e., fully trained users), we will consider evening and weekend sign-up times. Our facility is located in Stearns 207, adjacent to the Stearns elevator. All Imaging Facility users are encouraged to read the Imaging Facility Update blog for current instrument status. Please note that there are separate calendars for confocal/multiphoton and laser capture microdissection (Arcturus PixCell IIe) instrument reservations.
