Biomedical Optics Conference, Miami Beach, April 11-14, 2010 - featuring Roger Tsien, Sam Gambhir, and lots of acronyms

Dear list,

You may find of interest an upcoming conference:

Biomedical Optics Conference, Miami Beach, April 11-14, 2010 - featuring Roger Tsien, Sam Gambhir, and lots of acronyms (OSA, OCT, DH ... download the
Abstracts for the full listing). The Deauville is not the most fabulous hotel in Miami Beach, and is in North Beach, so you may enjoy staying at somewhere in South Beach, or if you can afford it, the Fontainbleau ( http://www.fontainebleau.com/gcm/nar/en-us/miamibeach/index.htm). Two fluorescence nanoscope are on page 26 of the abstract book.

The weather in Miami this week is high's around 75, low's around 60 (Farenheit). Should be a little warmer in mid-April. Mid-April is tail end of "the season" so you are now forewarned about hotel prices.

If you attend, let me know (off-list!) so I can organize an expedition(s) to South Beach.

Sincerely,

George

p.s. vendors - I have a suggestion for increasing booth traffic (no, not having Mango's wait staff be at your booth) - contact me off list if curious.
p.p.s I am not involved in organizing this meeting.
