Hi all,

Every June for the past twelve years, the University of British Columbia has found (a lot of!) room for us to hold the "3D Live-Cell" course. Last year I held off on the announcement because there was a question as to whether or not the rooms that we normally use would be undergoing renovation. Even with the late start we had more students than ever before.

This year, thanks to bureaucratic delays, I am pleased to say that it now seems that we will be able to get them for one more year.

If you haven't heard of the course before, please go to

http://www.3dcourse.ubc.ca/2008/public.php?page=brochure (There is a PDF you can download or just read the page.)

or perhaps check out the alumni at

http://www.3dcourse.ubc.ca/alumni.htm  to see if there is anyone you know.

There will be some new faces on the faculty this year. Here is the new list.

Holly Aaron             University of California-Berkeley, CA

Stephen Adams           University of California-San Diego, CA

Mark Cannell            University of Auckland, NZ

Steve Cody              Ludwig Institute, Melbourne, AU

Anda Cornea             Oregon Health-Sciences University

Ping Chin Cheng         SUNY-Buffalo, NY

Turan Erdogon           Semrock Inc., Rochester, NY

Victoria Frohlich               U. Texas, HSC. San Antonio, TX

Hans Gerritsen          Utrecht University, NL

Kurt Haas                       University of British Columbia, BC

Stefan Hell             Max Planck Institute, Goettingen, DE

Iain Johnson            Molecular Probes, OR

Andres Kriete           Tissue Informatics, Pittsburgh, PA

Paul Kulesa             Stowers Institute, Kansas City, MO

Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz    NIH, Bethesda, MD

Glen MacDonald          Virginia Bloedel Hearing Inst., WA

Felix Margadant         University of Sydney, AU

Robert Murphy           Carnegie-Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA

Tim Murphy              University of British Columbia, BC

Badri Roysam            Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, NY

Michael Weis            Agriculture Canada, BC

A draft listing of the program (based on 2007) can be found at

Hope to see you in Vancouver, next June.

Thirteenth Annual INTERNATIONAL 12-Day Short Course on 3D Microscopy of Living Cells, June 14 - 26, 2008 (Pre-course: June 16)

Twelfth, Post-course Workshop on 3D Image Processing,                                              June 29 -30

Organized by Prof. James Pawley, (University of Wisconsin-Madison)

in association with the Departments of Pharmacology and Physiology and the Brain Research Centre,
University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada

DATES

Applications must be received by                Saturday, March 15, 2008

Deposit due                             Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Registration 5:00 - 7:00 PM             Saturday, June 14, 2008

First Lecture 7:30 PM                   Saturday, June 14, 2008

Live-cell Course ends, noon                     Thursday, June 26, 2008

3D Image Processing Course,             Saturday, June 28 - Monday, June 30, 2008              

APPLICATIONS DUE BY MARCH 15, 2008

APPLICATIONS

Applicants must complete a questionnaire on the web to assess knowledge level, field of interest and proposed personal, live-cell, project. But don't let this put you off: if you plan to use 3D microscopy on living cells, we can usually find a way to make it work.

Enrollment will be limited to about 36 participants (exact number depends on number of 3D Systems available).  Selection will be made on the basis of background and perceived need.  Those without previous LM experience will be provided with access to basic texts to read before the course begins.  Application forms may be down-loaded from the WWW site at

http://www.3dcourse.ubc.ca/2008/public.php?page=apply, or obtained from:

Prof. James B. Pawley,                                  Ph.  608-263-3147

Room 223, Zoology Research Building,                    FAX  [phone]

250 N. Mills Street, Madison, WI, 53706                 [hidden email]

Additional information is available from:

http://www.3dcourse.ubc.ca/2008/  and links.

We expect to have at least 13, 3D microscope workstations for student use and there will be an international faculty of more than 20.

Application deadlines:

Application forms should be received for screening by March 15, 2008. Successful applicants will be notified by April 1, and a deposit of 50% must be received by April 15, 2008.  In general, refunds of the deposit will only be possible if someone on the waiting list can take your place but this has not been a problem in previous years.  The remaining balance is due before Registration.

Pre-Course Tuition (1/2 day Basic Optical principles)                           $150   (US)

3D Live-cell Course Tuition (includes lunches, 2 big snacks, 3 dinners, incl. the

  NEW Third Edition of the Handbook of Biological Confocal Microscopy):                 $2,950   (US)

Workshop Tuition (includes lunches, snacks, final dinner):                      $1,350   (US)

Room/board about $50/day (US) depending on room type.

I hope that this includes all of the information that you need, but if not, please get back to me.

I'd love to go to this as a rep the last four days doing imaging. Will says this may be difficult. What say you??

Cheers,
Lorie

I dont see any reason why it would be "Difficult".

 

Have you talked to Dan?
