>>Micro-Manager (http://micro-manager.org
>><http://micro-manager.org/>) is Open Source software for microscope
>>image acquisition. It controls a large number of scientific grade
>>cameras, microscopes and peripherals and lets you take snapshots,
>>do time-lapses, z-stacks, and multi-channel images. It runs as an
>>ImageJ plugin and works under the Windows, Mac and Linux OSs.
>>Micro-Manager is being developed at the Vale lab at UCSF supported
>>by a grant from the NIH.
>>
>>We are planning on having a microscope setup consisting of a
>>Yokogawa spinning disk confocal, Hamamatsu EM camera, Solamere
>>laser launch, Zeiss AxioObserver and ASI XY and piezo Z-stage all
>>run from a Mac Pro using Micro-Manager! We will be demonstrating a
>>way to do very fast multi-channel imaging and acquiring Z-stacks
>>using a hardware solution based on the Arduino micro-controller
>>(http://www.arduino.cc/).
>>This is also your chance to meet the new members of the
>>Micro-Manager team: Oleksiy Danikhno (who joined us last week) and
>>Arthur Edelstein (who will start in January).
>>Of course, our main goal is to meet you, hear about your
>>experiences with Micro-Manager, your wishes for future development
>>and everything else you would like to tell us. It is also a great
>>opportunity to get personal hands-on training in the use of
>>Micro-Manager. If you are running a microscope with Micro-Manager,
>>tell us at the meeting and we might have a Micro-Manager T-shirt
>>left for you!
>>
>>Hope to see you there!

>>Best,
