Topic:Hyperspectral Fluorescence Imaging of Biological Systems
Speaker:Dr. David M. Haaland, Senior Scientist, Sandia National Laboratories
Adjunct Professor, University of New Mexico
Abstract:
We have developed a 3D hyperspectral confocal fluorescence microscope that can optically section live cells with submicron spatial resolution. For each voxel within the specimen, the microscope records the entire emission spectrum from 500 nm to 800 nm. When coupled with multivariate curve resolution (MCR), the new microscope can “discover,” quantify, and resolve multiple spatially and spectrally overlapped emission components, thereby greatly increasing the number of fluorescent labels that can be monitored simultaneously.

All members of Chemistry Club need to try to get their dues paid within the next couple of meetings. The money collected for dues helps to pay for food at our meetings, funds trips to conventions, pays for fellow Chemistry majors to present their research, and more. Membership dues are only $6 for one semester or $10 for the entire year.
