McMaster University Public Lecture on Light Microscopy

Interested in science? Want to learn more about light?
Come to McMaster University's public lecture on light microscopy, which uses light and lenses to magnify an object that can't be seen with the naked eye. Light microscopes work a lot like telescopes, except that objects are small and close to the lens rather than far away.

This free event will explore the early history of light microscopy to the 2014 Nobel prize in chemistry for super-resolved fluorescence microscopy. The lecture also marks the UNESCO International Year of Light.

When: May 27 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Where: Michael DeGroote Centre for Learning and Discovery
Host: Annual Meeting of the Microscopical Society of Canada and McMaster University's Faculty of Engineering
