Cryo-Planing Workshop with UC Enuity

Join Institut Pasteur and Leica Microsystems for a workshop exploring cryo-planing for electron microscopy sample preparation with the UC Enuity ultramicrotome in its cryo-fluorescence configuration.

Following an introductory talk, see cryo-planing in practice and explore how fluorescence can support the targeting of regions of interest under cryogenic conditions.

What to expect

• An introduction to cryo workflows with UC Enuity
• Live demonstrations of cryo-planing in the UC Enuity cryo-fluorescence configuration
• An exploration of fluorescence-guided targeting under cryogenic conditions
• Small-group sessions using samples provided for the workshop
• Time for discussion with the workshop experts

Workshop format

The day begins at 9:30 am with welcome coffee and a short introductory talk from Andreia Pinto, Market Development Manager at Leica Microsystems. All participants are expected to attend this joint introductory session, regardless of their selected demonstration time.

Three small-group demonstration sessions are available. When registering, participants must select one of these three demonstration time slots. Each session is limited to four participants, providing time to observe the workflow and discuss it with the workshop experts.

Please note that participants cannot bring their own samples. Samples will be provided for the demonstrations.
