The Fluorescence Microscopy Workshop will include a symposium (17th march) with a series of seminars to explore the latest technological and scientific developments in fluorescence microscopy. This year, talks around both acquisition and analysis in living imaging will be designed with scientific and commercial presentations. This edition promises a lot of intense scientific discussions on these topics. 

This symposium, which will take place in the auditorium of the François Jacob building, represents a unique opportunity to hear from the leading experts in fluorescence microscopy about their latest research findings.

To coincide with this event, various companies will also be invited to display their state-of-the-art technological equipment with demonstrations on the campus 12companies have accepted the invitation to come and present either their technology or their materials.  

This 5th edition of FMW benefits from direct financial supports from invited companies and the C2RT for the organization. We strongly encourage PhD students and post-docs to participate to this workshop.

Following the new annual microscopy course “Principles and Applications of Fluorescence Microscopy” which is on offer for Masters and PhD students the teaching department and  the UTechS PBI (Imagopole) is organizing  a Workshop including both symposium (March 13th 2018) and  demonstration (March 12-16th). This workshop will be held on the campus and will run for until Friday, March 16th, 2018.

The symposium will be open to all researchers on the campus, but also to all guests and customers invited by the companies. This is a unique opportunity to bring together in one site the latest news of the greatest actors of fluorescence microscopy in Paris.

The event is free, but requires registration.
