Kirstin Elgass 24th Australian Conference on Microscopy and Microanalysis 2016

Kirstin Elgass

Dr. Kirstin Elgass is an Optical Microscopy Specialist at Monash Micro Imaging, Monash University. Her background is in single molecule imaging and spectroscopy in a laser optics lab in Tuebingen, Germany. During her PhD she used custom-built microscopes and novel microscopic techniques to study plant signalling processes. She then became a post-doctoral research fellow with the CXS (Centre for Coherent X-ray Science) at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia using confocal and x-ray microscopy to investigate mitochondrial morphology and dynamics. At Monash she now focuses on super-resolution techniques using primarily a home-built dSTORM system. Additionally, she aims to develop and implement novel microscopic techniques.
