Search the CONFOCAL archive at http://listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?S1=confocal Hi, Since the end of last year the idea of a Human Cytome Project has been discussed at several meetings. At the F.O.M. meeting (http://www.focusonmicroscopy.org/2004/program.html) this year the idea of a Human cytome Project was discussed in public for the first time. The next occasion will be the European Microscopy Meeting (http://www.emc2004.be/) in Antwerp at the end of this month (Friday August 27, Session LS 18. Round table: The Human Cytome project). I hope it will be an interesting discussion and I look forward to meet you at the meeting.
