Imperial Membrane Receptor Network Seminar Series Hosted by Dr Alejandra Tomas

Molecule-scale resolution and dynamics in fluorescence 
microscopy

Dr. Stefan W. Hell
Nobel Prize in Chemistry

Date: Wednesday 14 May 2025
Time: 14.30 to start at 15.00
Venue: Hammersmith Hospital Campus Wolfson Education Centre - Lecture Theatre 2

Stefan Hell is a director at both the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences (until the end of 2021: Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry) in Göttingen and the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in Heidelberg, Germany

He is credited with having conceived, validated and applied the first viable concept for overcoming Abbe’s diffraction-limited resolution barrier in a lightfocusing fluorescence microscope. For this accomplishment he has received numerous awards, including the 2014 Kavli Prize in Nanoscience and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

There will be refreshments and networking with the speaker after the seminar from 16.00 in the Café Area.

We look forward to seeing you there.
