Event Description
This is the joint annual meeting of the RMS Light Microscopy, Cell Biology and Cytometry Sections.
Recent advances in live cell imaging and cytometry have opened up extraordinary new frontiers in the study of cancer which promise to revolutionise our understanding of the disease and lead to significant advances in diagnosis and anti-cancer therapy. This focussed, two day meeting brings together internationally acclaimed scientists at the forefront of cancer cell imaging and cytometry to showcase some of the most stunning cutting edge technology and dynamic new approaches. It is a unique opportunity to sample a foretaste of the future of cancer biology .
The RMS Cell Biology Annual General Meeting will take place on Tuesday 19th September at 1pm.
