Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Imaging: A Laboratory Manual

In recent years, imaging has rapidly become a tremendously valuable approach in nearly every field of biological research. Finding the right method and optimizing it for data collection can be a daunting process, even for an established imaging laboratory. Imaging: A Laboratory Manual is the cornerstone of a new laboratory manual series, designed as an essential guide for investigators who need these visualization techniques. This first volume is meant as a general reference for all fields, and describes the theory and practice of a wide array of imaging methods. From the basic chapters on optics, equipment and labeling to detailed explanations of advanced, cutting-edge methods like PALM, STORM, light sheet and high speed microscopy, Imaging: A Laboratory Manual is a vital resource for the modern biology laboratory.
