Dear Colleague: The 8th Advanced Imaging Methods (AIM) Workshop, January 19-21, 2011, is organized by the University of California, Berkeley Molecular Imaging Center in conjunction with Becker & Hickl GmbH, and focuses on the latest techniques, results, and technology in laser scanning confocal microscopy, especially time resolved, presented by world-renowned scientists. Topics this year include: fluorescent lifetime imaging, FRET, multi-photon microscopy, adaptive optics, super resolution, physiological measurements, in-vivo imaging, spectroscopy, single molecule detection, and more. In addition to lectures and discussions, there is a poster session and manufacturer demonstrations. AIM is geared to researchers of all levels – students, postdocs, and primary investigators looking to learn more about the most recent advances in microscopy. Imaging techniques are one of the most useful tools in scientific discovery today, making this conference useful to researchers in almost any field: biology, chemistry, engineering, physics, vision science, astronomy, stem cell studies, optics, and more. While advantageous to have some experience in microscopy to get the most out of AIM, it is not essential. Primer talks on session topics will be given at the start of the major sessions. There is ample opportunity to meet with others in the field and engage in discussions in an informal, friendly setting. Morning pastries, lunch and coffee breaks will be included in the registration price, as well as evening receptions and optional tours.

Please feel free to forward this invite to colleagues who may find this conference of value.
