2 motivate fluorescence microscopy, explain its drawbacks (usually
3 only 5 min exposure without changing biology)
6 draw thin lens model of the optical system as delivered by the
7 company, give examples how it can be used to improve illumination
9 ** The electronic system
10 explain how devices are synchronized
11 *** Liquid crystal on Silicon Display
12 **** maybe describe how it works (but there isn't much information available)
13 *** Micro mirror array
14 **** I have more information but maybe I'm not allowed to disclose
16 ** The optimization system
17 *** Illumination optimization via Raytracing
18 *** Expected improvement with controlled light exposure (lack of Simulation will make that hard to write)
19 *** Expected improvement with angular illumination
20 *** Experimental results
23 ** Simulating the microscope
24 *** Raytracing through immersion objective
25 *** On locating nuclei
26 *** On tracking nuclei
27 *** Angular point spread function
28 *** Comparison of widefield and spatio-angular illumination
29 *** Optimization of illumination
31 compare performance of different cameras (SNR agains light
32 intensity), support our choice of camera
33 ** On measuring light intensity in the focal plane
34 ** On the choice of the objective
35 explain our choice of the objective
36 ** Controlling the micro-mirror array
37 ** Synchronizing electronics by microcontroller
38 ** Preparing C. elegans embryos for imaging
