Presentations will focus on biological problems for which a combination
of microscopies [i.e. integrated microscopy] has been used. The
speakers will demonstrate by example the power, potential and
limitations of various microscopical techniques.

This year we are happy to invite attendees to present their work during
the Saturday evening poster session. There is a limit of approx. 40
posters which can be displayed, therefore they will be accepted on a
