Instruments are happy to announce that registration is now open for the tenth
annual international symposium on the applications of scanning probe microscopy
(SPM) and optical tweezers. The symposia will be held on the 5-6th October 2011
in Berlin focusing on applications developments in life sciences. These
meetings continue to be highly regarded on the international life sciences
meetings calendar. More than 100 scientists from around the world are expected
to come to Berlin to discuss their results and share scientific knowledge in a
relaxed and informal atmosphere.
This year's speakers come from Europe and China and will present new research
results on a wide variety of topics. These will range from single molecule
force spectroscopy to torsional tapping AFM. A new method for cancer detection
by probing the elastic properties of cells is one of the many applications. In
the optical tweezers part of the program, contributions include the study of
mucin self-interactions and how the cell-cell adhesion of enthrocytes may be
studied using both optical tweezers and AFM. The meeting will also feature
poster sessions where delegates are invited to showcase their work to their
peers helping to make it a most interactive scientific meeting. These
traditionally attract a high standard of work offering students the opportunity
to present posters alongside leading researchers.
Announcing this year's meeting, Torsten Jähnke, Chief Technical Officer of JPK,
said "the speaker list is top notch again. It is rewarding after the hard
work putting together the event to have such a good list of top people as
speakers. I am looking forward to the popular poster competitions and see the
latest research activities of our delegates."
