HHMI Janelia Farm campus has several interesting conferences this
autumn. Registration deadline is early May (a request to attend and
promise to attend if the organizers select you). You need to submit an
abstract. I asked to attend the middle two.
Enjoy,
George

October 21-24, 2012 - Light-Based Approaches to Neural Circuit
Reconstruction <http://www.janelia.org/conferences-events/overview>
Identifying the functional organization of neural networks is key to
understanding how the brain processes and stores information. This
workshop, a follow-up to the first one held in fall 2010, will continue
to explore advances in the genetic, molecular, optical and computational
tools that facilitate neural circuit reconstruction by light microcopy.
Topics to be discussed include: genetic methods, cytochemistry,
light-based acquisition strategies and informatics.

October 28-31, 2012 - Turning Images to Knowledge: Large-Scale 3D
Image Annotation, Management and Visualization
<http://www.janelia.org/conferences-events/overview>
A follow-up to the first held in spring 2010, this conference will focus
not on pure image analysis, but will instead stress the importance of
extracting useful and biologically relevant descriptions and knowledge
from image contents in a systematic, comprehensive and high-throughput
way. We will review the state-of-the-art in the related fields, and
promote the development of critical tools to accelerate the discovery of
useful knowledge from image contents. Among others, participants will
discuss topics relevant to how biologists and biomedical researchers are
currently annotating 3D images on different scales, and how these
methods can be improved, as well as how to manage complex annotations
with regard to ontology and database limitations.

November 4-7, 2012 - Fluorescent Proteins and Biological Sensors
<http://www.janelia.org/conferences-events/overview>
Building on discussions from the first two meetings in this series, this
conference will showcase the development of cutting-edge tools and
technology for imaging, from cells to intact animals. Sessions will
cover the design and discovery of new fluorescent proteins (and
intriguing alternatives), and their incorporation into sensors for
signaling molecules and cellular states. Innovative imaging modalities
making use of such reagents, as well as biological discoveries gleaned
from such experiments, will also be presented. It is our hope that the
meeting can present a clear picture of how far these tools have come in
recent years, and what additional reagents and capabilities are required
to continue the advance of the Age of Light.
