Description
Focus on Microscopy 2010 is the continuation of a yearly conference series presenting the latest innovations in optical microscopy and their application in biology, medicine and the material sciences. Key subjects for the conference series are the theory and practice of 3D optical imaging, related 3D image processing, and reporting especially on developments in resolution and imaging modalities. The conference series is covers also the rapidly advancing fluorescence labeling techniques for the confocal and multi-photon 3D imaging of -live- biological specimens.
Typical topics of the upcoming FOM conference will include:
* Confocal and multiphoton-excitation microscopies * Novel illumination and detection strategies * Fluorescence - new labels, fluorescent proteins, quantum dots, single molecule * Time-resolved fluorescence - FRET, FRAP, FLIM, FCS * Coherent non-linear microscopies - SHG, THG, SFG, CARS * Raman, light scattering microscopy * Multi-dimensional imaging * Sub-wavelength resolution - near field microscopy, STED, PALM * Laser manipulation, ablation and microdissection, photoactivation * Optical tools in genomics, proteomics, phenomics, cytometry * Magnetic resonance and X-ray microscopy * Image processing and visualisation * Live cell and whole tissue imaging
