Applications of Electron Microscopy in Medicine

Applications of electron microscopy, stand-alone and in combination with other microscopy methods, in diverse fields of biological and medical research as well as in medical diagnosis will be one of the main topics at the Microscopy Conference (MC 2007), to be held from 2 to 7 September 2007 at the Saarland University in Saarbrücken (Germany). This is the 33rd Conference of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Elektronenmikroskopie e. V. (DGE), which was initially conceived as a national meeting but has achieved in recent years a remarkable international character. Based on the experiences in past conferences, approximately 500 participants and over 20 exhibitors are expected in Saarbrücken. This conference is an important scientific highlight for the Saarland University, coinciding with the celebrations of the 60th anniversary of its foundation by the French administration in 1947. Information about the program, commercial exhibition, deadlines, etc. is available on the meeting homepage: http: www.uni-saarland.de/mc2007.
