Two-Electrode Voltage Clamp Workshop

Dr. Marrero gave an introduction about the basic concepts of membrane physiology and how different ions moves across the plasma membrane. In the 3 hours introduction, he covered topics such as differential ion distribution, membrane potential, among other topics, as well as different strategies used to monitor voltage and currents through specific ion channels. In…

Fluorescent Light Microscopy Seminar at the Department of Chemistry UPR Cayey in Cayey P.R

Lcdo. Bismark Madera Soto conducted a seminar on the basic concepts of microscopy and fluorescence. The seminar aims to provide the knowledge for the appropriate imaging technique and the ideal microscope setup. Participants will be taught to distinguish between the available imaging techniques as Epi-Fluorescence, Confocal and Multiphoton. They will also learn the suitable mechanism…
