Online Microscopy Talks: Connect, learn and stay up to date
Host of online opportunities for those working from home or away from the lab
With many people across the scientific community now away from the lab during these uncertain times – and with meetings and other events on hold, the RMS is keen to help the microscopical community continue to share its knowledge and expertise remotely.
We are currently developing a dedicated website feature for our members to share information on a whole host of events, training, webinars and other items.
In the meantime, below is a list of useful courses, webinars, lectures and other online resources which we hope will be of interest to anyone looking for ways to stay busy and motivated. We would like to thank everyone who has been in touch to raise awareness of these opportunities, and we will endeavour to add new updates as we receive them.
To let us know about your online talk, please contact [email protected]
You could also get your hard work recognised by submitting to the Journal of Microscopy. It’s free, there's no page limit and submitting couldn't be easier.
