Photonex Scotland Roadshow includes an in-depth conference on the latest techniques and instrumentation available in subjects such as: the application of super-resolution microscopy to observe single molecule organisation and dynamics; Progress in CMOS single photon sensors for the life sciences; and Fast fluorescence lifetime imaging techniques for solid-state single-photon imagers.
A full programme is now available to download via the website.
Supported by ESRIC, this conference will be of particular interest to people wanting to learn more about technologies outside their immediate area of expertise or to hear leading academics in their own field. This year there is a specific theme: 'Technology Integration Enabling Imaging over many Scales: From Molecules to Man'.
Attendees to the Scotland Conference will have the rare opportunity to hear a talk by Prof. Dr. Graeme Whyte, Engineering Advanced Materials, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), who will be giving a presentation entitled: 'Optical traps for single cell tomography'

First held at Imperial College London in 2013, the conference 'Advances in Photonic Tools and Techniques for the life sciences' embraces new biophotonic techniques being applied in the life sciences, with photonics and light technologies now being adopted across disciplines.
Attend this event to broaden your knowledge in the world of photonics by attending a key meeting for biophotonics technologies. The technical committee have commented that this international quality 'invited' programme include presentations by eminent European research scientists. It is an event not to be missed.
In parallel to the scientific conference, the photonics tutorial programme is nearing completion and can also be viewed online
Tutorials will feature on theory, advances, techniques, technology comparisons and features to look out for when choosing your equipment for a project.
Titles include: Silicon photomultipliers – applications and recent advances; Real-world Applications of Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging; and Piezo positioning: Optimising performance
