July 2019 | IGC - Lisbon
3rd seminar of 2019 series being organised by the UIC: Advanced Imaging Facility team in 2019. The aim of this workshop is to teach new ImageJ/Fiji users how to create new macros or adapt already existing ones. The topics covered by this workshop go from an introduction to command recorder, language syntax and text editor, applying a macro in batch mode, creating variables and loops, using conditional statements and snippets, working with results tables, custom functions and dialog windows and using other plugins.
18-20 September 2019 | Coimbra Tryp Hotel - Coimbra
Dear colleagues and friends,
The organizing committee is pleased to welcome you at the 8th Workshop of the European Calcium Society (ECS): “Calcium Signaling in Aging and Neurodegenerative Diseases”. An exciting meeting with a multifaceted and highly interesting scientific program was prepared to create a unique opportunity to meet and discuss the latest research advances in understanding calcium signalling in the brain and changes underlying aging and neurodegenerative disorders.
The scientific program is structured into four tracks dedicated to synaptic calcium, mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum calcium, calcium signaling in glia and stem cells and a special session dedicated to technological innovations in calcium imaging, which will be followed by a hands-on session, for interested participants.
These sessions will be complemented by two poster parties where ample discussion between young and experienced researchers is expected.
Short oral presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts. ECS and local organizers would like to encourage young scientists in the calcium fields to submit their abstracts and present their latest work.
The meeting will take place in Tryp Hotel, Coimbra. More informations about the workshop here: http://www.8thworkshopecs.com
Important dates:
- 30th June, 2019: Early-bird registration
- 31th July, 2019: Deadline for registration and abstract submission
We look very much forward to welcoming all of you in Coimbra!

This EMBO Practical Course is aimed at junior researchers in developmental biology, struggling with imaging of cell movement and tissue morphogenesis in vivo using conventional microscopy techniques. Exploring techniques such as confocal, two-photon, light-sheet, and optical tomography with different samples is a major feature of the course. Several commercial partners contribute with state-of-the-art equipment for students to use during the course.
This year we will have:
The visualization, processing, analysis and publication of multidimensional images is also addressed, with both commercial and open source tools. Students are encouraged (in fact required!) to bring their own samples to test with multiple systems and to try other sample preparation and imaging protocols. The nine day course includes morning lectures with several renowned experts, and 6-8h of practicals/day with the support of over 20 teachers and more than ten high-end 3D imaging techniques. Students are encouraged to try new sample preparation protocols and as many imaging techniques as time permits. It also includes "micro" workshops on DIY building of microscopes and on image analysis. Although intense, this course is well appreciated for the breadth of techniques available and the inspiring and informal environment which favors discussions among peers.
