Dear All,
The COMPARE workshop on light-sheet microscopy is held in Birmingham and will have a special focus on in vivo imaging of the cardiovascular system and whole organisms.
Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy is a powerful technique for imaging live samples over long periods of time and for 3D imaging of large samples. This workshop will bring together world leaders in light-sheet imaging to focus on key questions in imaging the cardiovascular system and development in whole organisms. We will also provide in-depth demonstrations of selected light-sheet systems to present and discuss cutting edge application of light-sheet microscopy to cardiovascular and developmental biology.
To attend the workshop, please register via the University of Birmingham website:

With best wishes,
Dee
