[FILM-Users 00359] FILM Microscopy Day 2013 - 28 June 2013

[Martin Spitaler]

Dear microscopists,

   we are approaching the end of the academic year, and so is this 
year's microscopy day, again a whole day packed with information about 
everything related to microscopy. Those who have attended previous years 
will be able to tell you that it's the best opportunity to get answers 
to all your questions about microscopy. And even if you have already 
previously, we have updated our lectures and added new topics.

  This year, we will also finish the day with a plenary session by an 
invited speaker (to be confirmed) and some drinks afterwards.

   After a successful start, we will also have the Microscopy Match 
Maker & poster session again - an excellent opportunity to form 
collaborations, get ideas and feedback, or just see what other people 
are doing. The presentations are only 3 minutes / max. 3 slides, so not 
much to prepare, so please make sure you put your name down (emailing to 
<film-service at imperial.ac.uk>). And PIs, please encourage your students 
and postdocs to participate, to show their / your research and connect 
with other labs.

See you all there, good imaging,

Martin
