19th International Conference on 3D Image Processing in Microscopy
18th International Conference on Confocal Microscopy

2nd Announcement:

Dear Colleagues,

Abstracts for oral and poster presentations can now be submitted
preferably through the conference website:
 http://www.focusonmicroscopy.org
where also the conference registration has opened and hotel
information is available.

Deadline for abstract submission: Jan. 9, 2006.

The  program will start on  Sunday April 9, around 18 hours with an
opening symposium followed by a welcome reception.

After the successful FOM2005 conference in Jena, the next conference Focus
on Microscopy 2006 will take place in Perth, Western Australia, April
9-12, 2006.  FOM2006 is the next in a series of unique interdisciplinary
meetings on advanced multidimensional light microscopy and image
processing. The conference will be hosted by the University of Western
Australia in Perth and held in the beautiful Esplanade Hotel in the
historic waterfront suburb of Perth, Fremantle.

Focus on Microscopy 2006 is the continuation of a conference series
presenting the latest innovations in optical microscopy and its
applications in biology, medicine, material science, and information
storage.  3D optical imaging and related theory are traditional subjects
for the conference. The conference series is also known for covering the
rapid development of advanced fluorescence labeling techniques for the
confocal andmulti-photon 3D imaging of  -live-  biological specimens. 
This year, in addition, special attention will be given to imaging in
thick tissues.

Abstracts for contributions are invited and can now be submitted through
the website:

www.FocusOnMicroscopy.org

where further information on the present and previous FOM conferences can
be found.
