Falk Schlaudraff , Dr.
Falk Schlaudraff wurde in Lüneburg, Deutschland, geboren. Nach seinem Master in Molecular Life Science an der Universität zu Lübeck, wo er auch das Grundstudium der Informatik absolvierte, zog er nach Marburg (Philipps-Universität Marburg) und später nach Ulm (Universität Ulm), wo er im Labor von Prof. Birgit Liss an seiner Doktorarbeit über die Parkinson-Krankheit arbeitete und diese abschloss. Danach arbeitete er als Wissenschaftler in der Forschung und Entwicklung bei Qiagen (Hilden, Deutschland), bevor er im Mai 2011 als Produktmanager bei Leica Microsystems anfing.
Neuron Isolation in Spatial Context with Laser Microdissection (LMD)
After Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s is the second most common progressive neurodegenerative disease. Before the first symptoms manifest, up to 70% of dopamine-releasing neurons in the mid-brain…
Deep Visual Proteomics Provides Precise Spatial Proteomic Information
Despite the availability of imaging methods and mass spectroscopy for spatial proteomics, a key challenge that remains is correlating images with single-cell resolution to protein-abundance…
RNA Quality after Different Tissue Sample Preparation
The influence of sample preparation and ultraviolet (UV) laser microdissection (UV LMD) on the quality of RNA from murine-brain tissue cryo-sections is described in this article. To obtain good…

20 Years of Leica Laser Microdissection
Phenotype-genotype correlations are key for insight. From Eye to Insight is therefore fitting perfectly to Leica Microsystems and in particular to laser microdissection. Laser Microdissection, also…
Workflows & Protocols: How to Isolate Individual Chromosomes with Laser Microdissection
During the first Leica Workshop in Brazil, at the Centro de Energia Nuclear na Agricultura/USP (CENA), the participants learned how to prepare samples for laser microdissection (LMD) using a cryotome.…
Workflows & Protocols: How to Use a Leica Laser Microdissection System and Qiagen Kits for Successful RNA Analysis
Laser Microdissection (LMD) allows isolating individual cells or chromosomes and is a well established technique for sample preparation prior downstream analysis of the nucleic acid content via PCR or…
