[FILM-Users 00332] user committee meeting - notes
by Martin Spitaler 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

Dear microscopists, today's user committee meeting was a rather small event, only one person turned up (thanks, Ralph). I hope that means that everybody is perfectly happy and there is no need for big discussions. However, as I hadn't heard of any issues from your (users') side, the main purpose was to update users about the running of the facility - you can still see the minutes on the FILM website under RESCOURCES & DOWNLOADS / DOCUMENTS. Good imaging, Martin -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Martin Spitaler, PhD* *FILM - Facility for Imaging by Light Microscopy* - Facility Manager - Sir Alexander Fleming Building, desk 401 Imperial College London / South Kensington Exhibition Road London SW7 2AZ UK Tel. +44-(0)20-759-42023 E-mail m.spitaler(a)imperial.ac.uk <mailto:m.spitaler@imperial.ac.uk> Website: http://imperial.ac.uk/imagingfacility

Our thought is that ‘posters’ would be helpful to reach out to your colleagues who might not hear otherwise. We do have a good number of friends and associates who have agreed to put up posters, however we are hoping for a little assistance. We receive A3 sized posters back from the printers today, do you think you can help to pin up a few?

We have developed an array of computational tools to capture, process, and combine images acquired with different microscopy modalities, at different temporal and spatial scales, and over multiple samples, in an effort to build a multi-dimensional model of the beating and developing heart where morphology and function can be simultaneously studied. *Read the full abstract » <http://bitplane.createsend5.com/t/r-l-oldtytt-jjpjihiuk-y/>* *When is the event:* * 13^th March * /16:00 GMT (17:00 CET/12:00 EDT)/ *Click here to register for this event» <http://bitplane.createsend5.com/t/r-l-oldtytt-jjpjihiuk-j/>* *Michael LieblingMichael Liebling, PhD* Assistant Professor, UC Santa Barbara Bitplane Badenerstrasse 682, CH-8048 Zurich, Switzerland You can forward this newsletter to a colleague <http://bitplane.forwardtomyfriend.com/r-jjpjihiuk-A0E7A23B-oldtytt-l-i> or unsubscribe <http://bitplane.createsend5.com/t/r-u-oldtytt-jjpjihiuk-d/> to no longer receive notifications.
