Annotation -
The course gives an introduction to the principles of fluorescence and highlights relevant applications mainly in biology. The course is held every week, always two hours. The lecturer prefers to teach that subject in English. However, for the case the students wish that the course is held in Czech language, it will be held in Czech language.
