Synopsis
This course considers, as starting point, fundamental aspects of fluorescence spectroscopy
(absorption/ emission spectra, lifetime, energy transfer, intensity fluctuations, etc) that are
the basis of advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques. An overview of quantitative
fluorescence-based methods, including Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET),
Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM), Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS), will be
the core of the course. The course will focus on the principles, the experimental aspects and
examples of applications of the techniques. The methods of analysis will also be discussed.
