The goal of this international competition is to identify and showcase scientific micrographs and movie clips. While there must be scientific content in the images, winning entries will also exhibit exceptional composition and other esthetic qualities.
Dear Colleagues,
We are now accepting proposals from scientists who would like to conduct experiments at the Advanced Imaging Center (AIC) at Janelia Research Campus. The deadline to submit a proposal is 5:00 p.m. (US eastern time),February 28, 2019.
The UA Office for Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) has just announced a small grants program for users of RDI core facilities. The proposals are reviewed quarterly, can be up to $10,000, must be spent in the core facilities, and can be used for:
Course topics include advanced optical microscopy methods (several), biological TEM, and microanalysis. Please note, some courses have a registration deadline.

Paraffin wax tissue blocks can be sectioned again and again (as long as there is still tissue in the block), so it is important that they be stored properly.
These US or North American professional societies are either about microscopy or have a strong microscopy component. There are many more societies if you look outside the North American region of
Flow Cytometry passes individual cells inside a thin stream of liquid through a light cell that exposes the cells to different laser lines. Fluorescence, as well as light scattering can be
