Attendance is free for registered participants. See for details the program on the website.
Authors have been informed individually by E-mail on the placement
of their contribution in the program.
After the successful FOM2011 conference held in Konstanz, Germany last year, the upcoming Focus on Microscopy 2012 will take place in Singapore in the week before Easter from Sunday April 1 to Wednesday April 4, 2012.
It is the next in a series of unique interdisciplinary meetings on advanced multi-dimensional light microscopy and image processing. The conference venue is the Suntec Singapore International Convention & Exhibition Centre, in the heart of Singapore. FOM2012 is sponsored by the National University of Singapore (NUS), the Nanyang Technological University (NTU), the Centre of Bioimaging Sciences (CBIS), and the Mechanobiology Institute (MBI).
Focus on Microscopy 2012 is the continuation of a yearly conference series presenting the latest innovations and new trends in optical microscopy and their application in biology, medicine and material sciences.
Key topics are:
- Theory and practice of confocal and multiphoton-excitation microscopy
- 3D and 4D live cell and tissue imaging
- Super-resolution, nanoscopy imaging: from PSF engineering (4pi, SIM, STED), fluorescent activation/quenching, stochastic/centroid to TIRF
- Time-resolved fluorescence: FRET, FRAP, FLIM, FCS
- Coherent, non-linear microscopies: SHG, THG, SFG, CARS.
- Multi-dimensional fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy imaging
- Correlative Light/Electron microscopy
- Laser manipulation and tracking, photo-activation
- Bio- and nano-materials, biosensors
- OCT, endoscopy
- Fast acquisition, automated and high-throughput microscopy
- 3D image processing and visualization for multidimensional data sets
The conference series is, in addition, known for covering the rapid development of advanced fluorescence labeling techniques for the confocal and multi-photon 3D imaging of -live- biological specimens.
