MicroSmartScope: e se il tuo smartphone diventasse un microscopio?

MicroSmartScope: e se il tuo smartphone diventasse un microscopio?

The number of planets discovered outside the Solar System is increasing and the search for alien life is becoming essential. Today we have professional microscopes that are able to observe up to the smallest detail (0.2 nm). But they are very expensive and, some, really bulky and difficult to use and transport. Which features should a microscope for the study of exobiology have? Could we already have the solution in our pocket?
Learn with us how to build a simple do-it-yourself microscope using your mobile phone to become a budding astro-biologist and photograph life with your MicroSmartScope!

Federica Andreola, Daniela Giovannini (CNR-IFT in collaborazione con INAF-IAPS, Associazione Speak Science)

Federica Andreola and Daniela Giovannini work at the “Cytomorphometry and molecular analyses in pre-clinical experimentation" laboratory of the Istituto di Farmacologia Traslazionale (IFT), Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR) where they are involved in scientific research projects for the study of new therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative and tumor diseases. Recently they have decided to use the technical skills and passion for science for educational purposes, to transmit and educate new generations to curiosity and love for knowledge.
