Dear Colleague,

We have received several requests to extend the deadline for the abstract
submission for QBI 2020 in Oxford. The new deadline is now *Monday 9
September 2019*.

The abstract submission site is:
https://www.quantitativebioimaging.com/qbi2020/abstract-submission/

The conference will be held 6-9 January 2020 with the first day being a
workshop day.

We seek contributions in any area of quantitative microscopy. Presentations
that demonstrate new approaches and methodologies are particularly welcome,
including but not limited to algorithmic and software developments,
physical modeling approaches, etc. The use of quantitative imaging
techniques in biological applications is also of great interest. For
submission details, please see the conference website
(www.quantitativebioimaging.com)
