Dear Colleagues,

We would like to remind you of the upcoming Yale Microscopy Workshop that will be held June 2 -4th 2015. This free event is a combination of symposia, classes and open access to functional microscopes and analytic software. It is the perfect opportunity to compare instruments, get advice or try out something new.

Please see the website for free registration, a listing of available equipment and a schedule of events. http://medicine.yale.edu/lab/microscopy/index.aspx

Time:  June 2 - 4th, 2015
Location:  Yale University School of Medicine, The Anlyan Center (TAC), New Haven, CT
Cost: Free on-line or on-site registration
Features:
- Demonstrations, technical lectures, and walk-in clinics
- Open access to state-of-the-art light and electron microscopes, as well as EM sample preparation equipment.
We are very pleased to announce that several recent product releases will be available for hands-on use, including Lightsheet microscopes from Leica and LaVision BioTec and a Leica Cryo-CLEM system.
