The UK FIB&Prep User Group is organized to provide an open forum for FIB users and all users of specimen preparation equipment for microscopes to share advances in the technique, discuss best practices, present experimental and theoretical findings/discoveries, exchange tips for preparation of difficult materials, 2D and 3D analysis of challenging data sets and learn about new developments in both instrumentation and techniques, as well meet new colleagues and old friends.
This meeting has been held annually in Manchester since 2013. For the second year running it will be held online, due to the COVID-19 situation. FIB&Prep has been proven to be a popular meeting with large number of attendees. With increasingly fast development of FIB systems and sample preparation equipment in line with an increasing number of such equipment available worldwide, we believe many of our talks on the cutting edge of current technology development and its wide range of applications from experts and researchers will bring you fresh insights.
