The Microscopy and Image Analysis Platform (MIAP) Freiburg invites you to a “Core Facility Management Software Workshop” (7.-8.2.2017).
It is primarily designed to meet the requirements of Core Facility managers, looking for the optimal solution, as well as team or IT members, who will have to setup such a management software in their home institutions. We also encourage major opinion leaders in the field to use this workshop as an opportunity to discuss and define the future needs in the field.

Please find the workshop program and registration form on the following webpage:

Dear colleague,

We would like to invite you to the Young Life Scientists’ Symposium 2016 “Advanced Imaging with Light Microscopy: Capturing Tissues to Single Molecules”, which will take place on Friday 28th October 2016 at Imperial College London, Hammersmith Hospital Campus, W12 0NN.

The YLS Symposium is a free event open to everyone who is using microscopy techniques for their research and wants to gain a deeper understanding in this field. Focusing on application of emerging advanced imaging techniques, image analysis and current research into imaging complex cellular processes, the YLS Symposium 2016 will cover a wide range of techniques and their applications, together with sample preparation and post-acquisition analysis workshops.

Keynote speakers feature Prof. Francesco Pavone,Laurent Cognet and Lothar Schermelleh, who will present their cutting edge research and major achievements during plenary lectures, followed by a Q&A session. The programme also includes oral presentations selected from abstracts, a poster session, an image competition (prizes would be given) and a discussion panel. The Symposium will be the perfect occasion for networking over provided coffee-breaks, lunch and a drinks reception.

Dear Colleagues,

The 6th Biosensor Meeting will take place on May 12th-13th 2016 at the campus of Orsay (Batiment des Colloques).

The GDR MIV Biosensor Group promotes the development and implementation of real time biosensor imaging approaches to decipher the spatio-temporal dynamics and underlying regulatory mechanisms of signaling cascades, kinase activities, protein-protein interactions and more: from single cells to complex biological systems including tissues, whole embryos and adult animals. This meeting gathers biologists, chemists and physicists developing fluorescent probes, reporters or biosensors whether genetically-encoded or synthetic, allowing for exchange of ideas and tools over two days. The format will be similar to the previous editions and will provide an opportunity to young researchers and confirmed scientists to share their work in the form of oral communications or posters.

The 6th edition will include a special focus on mechanical and chemical sensors.
Confirmed invited speakers are Carsten Grashoff (MPI Biochemistry, Munich, Germany) and Ranieri Bizzarri (Nanoscience Institute, Pisa, Italy)

The International symposium in BioNanoVision will bring together a multidisciplinary group of world-leading scientists to further our understanding on the fundamental molecular mechanisms that regulate cellular architecture, from nuclear organization to the cell membrane. These will include experts from the optical nanoscopy field, biophysicists, cell biologists, chemists and statistical physicists. Since super-resolution and single molecule optical techniques have been crucial to advancing our understanding of cellular structure and protein behaviour, we will place a special emphasis on the technologies that are enabling the visualization of molecular components at function with unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution.

We would like to invite you to take part in this exciting meeting, which will take place during 25-27 May 2016 in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, at ICFO – the Institute of Photonic Sciences.
