Euro-BioImaging ERIC

"Since May 2016, Euro-BioImaging has enjoyed a successful interim operation; offering life scientists open access to imaging services across its 29 Nodes Candidates throughout Europe. The next step is ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium) status, and this will be launched with at least 15 founding members: Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland (the legal host), France, Hungary, Israel, Italy (site of the Med Hub), Norway, Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, UK and the intergovernmental organisation, EMBL (site of the Bio Hub). Belgium will participate as an observer while Poland, and Spain are preparing for their participation in the near future. With their commitment, the founding members demonstrate imaging research as a national priority for at least the next five years, thereby supporting scientific flexibility and excellence across Europe."

Symposium on Ultrafast Sources for Bioimaging

17 September 2019 | INL, Braga

We invite bioimaging enthusiasts and researchers to the bioimaging symposium which shall provide an inside on recent developments in bioimaging techniques and with a focus on ultrafast sources for bioimaging, a demo showing how to use a few-cycle laser in a microscope setup, lab tours and plenty of time for networking.

Participate in this demo of the newest technical development in nonlinear microscopy using ultrashort laser sources with and inspiring talks giving an overview of Bioimaging in Portugal. Meet the researchers and facility managers of selected Bioimaging facilities from research centres of excellence (and nodes of the Portuguese Platform for BioImaging (PPBI)) who will present their research and research opportunities that involve nonlinear microscopy.

Registrations are open until September 17th.
