International School of Physics "Enrico Fermi"

MULTIMODAL AND NANOSCALE OPTICAL MICROSCOPY

10 - 15 July 2022, Varenna, Como Lake, Italy

Info

THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF PHYSICS "ENRICO FERMI", one of the most significant cultural activities of the Italian Physical Society, was founded in 1953 by the President of that time, Prof. Giovanni Polvani.

The Courses of the School, usually held in summer, now have become a special and precious opportunity of meeting scientists and young physicists from all over the world and have reached considerable international prestige.

The objective of this School is to advance the field of nanoscale optical microscopy operating at the scale of nanometres to tens of nanometres, through the exchange of information, ideas, and innovative techniques. The understanding of methods and techniques has the great potential of allowing, in the near future, the design and performance of new exciting experiments in Biophysics, Optics and Photonics.

Lessons will be held in the Villa Monastero, Varenna.
