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.

Spanish and Portuguese Advanced Optical Microscopy Meeting

6-8 November 2019 | Convento de São Francisco - Coimbra

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to SPAOM2019, the 3rd edition of the Spanish and Portuguese Advanced Optical Microscopy Meeting (also 5th edition of the REMOA meeting), to be hosted for the 1st time in Portugal, in Coimbra, on November 6-8, 2019.

SPAOM2019 is an international meeting, now annual, powered by the Iberian imaging community (REMOA in Spain and PPBI in Portugal) aiming to approach any aspect of Imaging in Life Science research. The meeting features a 3-faceted format: talks, industry workshops and the special community workshops.

The organizers have strived to elaborate a balanced meeting, please check our scientific program:

Tissue Environment in Health and Disease Symposium

08-10 October 2019 | Lisbon

The 2019 Champalimaud Research Symposium Tissue Environment in Health and Disease will be held in Lisbon, Portugal from the 8th to the 10th of October 2019. The Symposium will address how intrinsic and extrinsic environments impact on tissue homeostasis and will take the form of a scientific meeting, with 17 invited speakers, several talks selected from abstracts and poster sessions. We are delighted that Professor Elaine Fuchs and Professor Richard Locksley kindly agreed to be our keynote lecturers, heading a diverse list of distinguished speakers.

The topic will be highlighted from different angles and include discussion on the homeostatic mechanisms that underlie inflammation, injury, ageing and oncogenic transformation in different tissues of our body. Invited speakers will therefore cover aspects from immunology, cell signaling, genetics and tissue regeneration in different model organisms.
The Symposium will be held at our Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown on the waterfront in central Lisbon. We expect that the unique venue, together with an exciting list of invited speakers, will foster a lively and stimulating scientific meeting.
