Microscopical Society of Canada 2005 meeting.

[Joaquin Ortega]

The Microscopical Society of Canada invites you to attend its 2005 
meeting.

http://sciwebserver.mcmaster.ca/~bimr/MSC-SMC2005/index.htm

Date:
May18-20, 2005.

Location:
McMaster University
Hamilton, Ontario. Canada.

Overview
The aim of this special symposium is to create links between the 
microscopy and synchrotron communities and links between the life and 
physical sciences. Focus topics for sessions include cryo-electron 
microscopy and cryo-electron tomography with biological samples, 
scanning probe techniques (high-low resolution), spectroscopic 
techniques in the TEM, fluorescence microscopy techniques etc. We have 
also contacted the Canadian Light Source (CLS) user group and the 
Canadian Institute for Synchrotron Radiation (CISR) for a special 
symposium within MSC meeting on x-ray micro-spectroscopy techniques 
related to life sciences and physical sciences.

Invited speakers:
Wolfgang Baumeister, Alasdair Steven, Sriram Subramanian, Chris 
Jacobsen, Andreas Heinrich, Martin Hÿtch, Matthew Weyland, Konstantine 
Kaznatcheev, Peter Fischer, Brendan Griffin, Angus Wilkinson, Harry 
Leung, Frederica Brandizzi, Cynthia Goh, Gelsomina De Stasio.

The meeting will include the following workshops:
Cryo-electron microscopy, spectromicroscopy, electron backscatter 
diffraction (EBSD), electron energy loss spectroscopy and energy 
filtered imaging (EELS/EFTEM), atomic resolution analysis of defects 
and strains in solids (HRTEM), scanning probe techniques (SPM), 
confocal and fluorescence microscopy methods (CFM), cryomicrotomy and 
microtomy of hard materials (ultramicrotomy), light microscopy and 
analysis of electron and light microscopy images (LM-IA).
