Selection criteria

• A motivation letter that describes the expected impact of the acquired knowledge. It should show how the new techniques would further ongoing projects or help to adapt the techniques to the imaging facility.
• A short structured CV including the registrant's scientific/professional history, a brief description of their experiences in the light microscopy field, and the techniques routinely used in microsocpy.
• Poster abstract: description of their own scientific project(s).

The important criteria will be the motivation and expectations from which we can estimate a potential impact of the course to the projects or carrier of the candidate.

Abstract guidelines

The abstract will be accepted in English language.

The abstract describes the project and/or should clarify the methodical approach, mainly the methods of microscopy.

In cases where the candidate does not have a scientific project (facility staff or company members), the poster abstract should describe ongoing techniques or approaches frequently used in their lab.

The limit is 400 words.

Poster specifications
