Join us at UC Berkeley for the AIM/LFD FLAIR Workshop 2027: “Fluorescence Advanced Imaging Research,” taking place January 26–28, 2027.
FLAIR is the new evolution of AIM (Advanced Imaging Methods) Workshop, continuing its 22 year tradition of bringing together researchers, imaging experts, and technology leaders while expanding the program’s focus on fluorescence-based imaging technologies and their applications.
The workshop will explore cutting-edge developments in fluorescence microscopy and advanced imaging, including fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) and FRET, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), RICS, super-resolution microscopy, biosensors and probe development, spectral phasors, artificial intelligence in microscopy and image processing, and applications in neuroscience, cancer, and metabolic research.
Featuring invited speakers from institutions across the U.S. and internationally, FLAIR provides an opportunity to learn about emerging technologies, exchange ideas, and connect with the broader advanced imaging community.
Early-bird registration is available through November 15, 2026.
We hope you’ll join us at UC Berkeley for three days of science, technology, and collaboration!

Thank you for a great 22nd Advanced Imaging Methods Workshop!
4D Advanced Microscopy of Brain Circuits Course – permanently on hold
A collaborative effort between the CRL-Molecular Imaging Center, the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, UC Berkeley faculty and graduate students, and Zeiss Microscopy, the inaugural 4D Advanced Microscopy in Brain Circuits course, held from January 10-15, 2016, was a huge success! Sixteen students from around the country participated in lectures and hands-on labs where they had access to state-of-the-art instruments.
4DAMBC is currently on hold.
Please contact brainmic@berkeley.edu for more information.
The 2017 course was May 21-27, 2017. More information here: official course website.
