The PMCx61 is a one-day conference organized by the 3DEM FIG for trainees, professionals and researchers using microscopy in the biological sciences. Our PMC will include discussions covering the recent innovations in the field guided by invited talks delivered
by leaders and emerging scientists in our field. We offer a highly interactive forum for participants to share cutting-edge research and to network; and for students, trainees and early career professionals to engage with the greater cryoEM community of the
main M&M meeting. As part of this PMC, we will be featuring several panel discussions and networking events.

We're planning an event with a lot of opportunities to participate throughout the day, and for an afternoon visit to the University of Utah's cryoEM facility. The best way for you to join is to submit an abstract for a poster or flash talk at our PMC to share
your work with a broader audience.<br>
For planning purposes, let us know interest here: <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/7EFaJSTyMWCJVoCdA__;!!Mih3wA!CnD54KotJ5zkAdD2CWvKK0STQQT-UVvxjEHTgFXaoglGc-srbycjGBPCOFKOQrQdKJtIrw5qnWqRLN0$">https://forms.gle/7EFaJSTyMWCJVoCdA</a></div>
