The day will include microscopy talks from researchers at the forefront of microscope design and implementation for biological application, working here in Scotland. They will be talking through their work and how they are collaborating the biologists.
We will also have a panel session from the winners of the Facilities Database Funding call, run in collaboration with SULSA. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask any questions about anything from the technology available in the facilities, to how to use the facilities with the new COVID restrictions.
