Jochen J. Sieber , PhD
Jochen Sieber, Product Manager Superresolution Technologies, Leica Microsystems Mannheim, studied biochemistry in Leipzig, Germany and in Glasgow, UK. He acquired his doctor’s degree at the neurobiology department of the Max-Planck-Institute for biophysical chemistry in Göttingen. There, he was exemplarily characterizing the Syntaxin 1-Cluster to acquire further knowledge about the architecture and dynamics of the plasma membrane. The co-operation with Prof. Stefan Hell provided Sieber with the opportunity to determine size, number and density of this nanostructure via STED-Microscopy. In 2007, he became Application Developer Focus Superresolution before becoming Product Manager Superresolution in 2010.
Measuring the 3D STED-PSF with a new Type of Fluorescent Beads
A new type of fluorescent bead is presented by GATTAquant. These beads, called GATTA-Beads, are characterized by a small diameter (23 nm), high intensity and size uniformity. In combination with…Read article
Confocal Nanoscopy Goes Multicolor
Scientists strive to understand the architecture of life. They want to learn how biological structures are arranged in respect to one another. Multicolor superresolution imaging allows fundamental…Read article
