The online course “Vedere per Credere” (Seeing to Believe), is a Golinelli Foundation and G-LAB project, coordinated by Dr. Spartaco Santi and produced thanks to the technical support of Nikon Instruments. The course, dedicated to first and second grade secondary school science teachers, consists of 16 thematic modules extending from the basic concepts of microscopy to the most advanced techniques currently present in research laboratories.

In this edition we have provided the basic information necessary for realize imaging on thick specimens. The theoretical lessons, held by expert researchers-teachers from the most prestigious Italian Research Institutes, alternated with extensive practical sessions carried out directly on the latest generation of equipment, in the presence of Tutors and Product Specialists from the most important technology companies.

The 3rd edition of the Scuola di Microscopia (School of Microscopy), in collaboration with the Digital Microscopy Center of the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute, provided basic information for the use of the main super-resolution optical microscopy techniques. Theoretical lessons alternated with extensive practical sessions carried out directly on state-of-the-art equipment, in the presence of Tutors and Product Specialists from the most important technology companies.

The Scuola di Microscopia (School of Microscopy) in collaboration with the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute of Bologna, has provided the basic principles and techniques for the use of optical microscopy, with particular technological insights for the study of cell dynamics in Live Imaging. Theoretical lessons alternated with extensive practical sessions carried out directly on the latest generation equipment.
