FOCUS ON MICROSCOPY 2011 - Konstanz, Germany, April 17-20, 2011
includes:
24th International Conference on 3D Image Processing in Microscopy
23rd International Conference on Confocal Microscopy
Dear Colleagues,
After the successful FOM2010 conference held in Shanghai, China this year, it is a pleasure to announce the next conference Focus on Microscopy 2011. It will take place in Konstanz, Germany in the week before Easter from Sunday April 17 to Wednesday April 20, 2011.
As the next in a series of unique interdisciplinary meetings on advanced multi-dimensional light microscopy and image processing, the conference will be sponsored by the University of Konstanz and will take place at the campus of this University. Please note that the conference outing and dinner will take place in the afternoon and evening of the last day (Wednesday) of the conference. This is in contrast to some previous years, where this dinner was arranged earlier in the conference.
Focus on Microscopy 2011 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 subjects are:
- the theory and practice of multi-dimensional optical microscopy
- superresolution, nano-microscopy (SIM, STED, PALM, etc.)
- nonlinear excitation techniques (SHG, Raman, THG, OCM) including label-free imaging (CARS, SRS)
- fluorescence imaging modes including single-molecule approaches (FRET, FLIM, FCS)
- Photo-perturbation methods (FRAP), Photo-activation, Photo-conversion, and quenching based functional imaging techniques for cell biology
- laser-mediated manipulation of cells and tissues
- fast-acquisition, automated and high-throughput microscopy techniques
- related (3D) image processing and analysis approaches
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.
Abstracts for contributions are invited and can already be submitted through the website:
http://www.FocusOnMicroscopy.org where further information on the present and previous FOM conferences can be found.
Important dates:
Deadline for the submission of abstracts: January 17, 2011
Acceptance of contributions, draft program: February 7, 2011
Deadline for early registration: February 28, 2011
