Seeing is believing

🌟 "Seeing is Believing!" 🌟

Thrilled to share that the Three-Day Workshop on Scanning Confocal Microscope with Live Cell Imaging (NSCM 2K24) has successfully begun at the Central Laboratory for Instrumentation and Facilitation (CLIF), University of Kerala.

The inaugural session this morning was graced by Dr. Santhosh Kumar T R, Scientist G, RGCB, Thiruvananthapuram, who officially inaugurated the workshop with inspiring words that set the tone for an exciting journey of learning and discovery. We also had the privilege of hearing from Dr. Subodh G, Hon. Director of CLIF, who welcomed the participants and shared the vision of CLIF, and Dr. P. Sreejith, Assistant Professor, Department of Zoology, who offered his felicitations.

Confocal microscopy is a emerging technology that brings science to life by providing 3D imaging with high precision. From live cell imaging to fluorescence studies, this tool is transforming research across diverse fields, including biology, medicine, and material sciences.

As the Instrumentation Engineer at CLIF, I am proud to be part of this initiative and also appreciate efforts of Soumya and Jibinraj who are equally excited to showcase the capabilities of this state-of-the-art confocal microscope facility, now available to researchers at the University of Kerala.

This workshop, featuring experts like Dr. Sandhya Ganesan (IISER TVM) and Dr. J. Sebastian Raja (Leica Microsystems), promises to be an enriching experience for all participants, equipping them with the skills and knowledge to push the boundaries of science.

Today’s event was just the beginning of an inspiring journey. Let’s explore the wonders of science, because as the saying goes: "Seeing is Believing”
