Associated Meetings
The variety and scope of mmc2017 is thanks to the number of smaller meetings that make up the Congress. Find out more about each of the organisations making up this year's Microscience Microscopy Congress.
Travel Bursaries
We are proud to be offering travel bursaries to students and early-career researchers to help you attend what we believe is the microscopy event of the year!
The international mmc2017 conference will comprise over 30 symposia, with excellent speakers and vibrant supporting poster sessions.
The congress will begin on Monday 3 July with a number of Pre-Congress Workshops addressing and demonstrating some of the latest techniques and software. The main conference will follow these workshops with two Plenary talks from top speakers and a drinks reception to welcome you to mmc2017.
On Tuesday 4 July the conference sessions will start with six parallel sessions each day, incorporating a number of popular meetings:
- EMAG2017 organised by the Electron Microscopy and Analysis Group (EMAG) of the Institute of Physics
- Frontiers in BioImaging Meeting
- Scanning Probe Microscopy Meeting
- Scottish Microscopy Group Symposium
- Microscopy Society of Ireland Annual Meeting
The conference will then take place over the next 3 days, closing at 1700 on Thursday 6 July.
Throughout the 3 days, the programme will be complemented by a number of celebrated international Plenary and Invited Speakers.
