The supplier of the world’s largest range of fluorescence research instruments is proud to announce the first of a leading new workshop series. To be held in Prague between 3rd to 5th June 2009 the FluoroFest workshop will combine a didactic approach, including extensive hands-on measurements, with both the fundamentals and frontier topics presented by leaders in the field. By using frontier applications as exemplars emphasis will be placed on the generic themes running through fluorescence which underpin progress across numerous disciplines. The workshop will thus be suitable for both the expert and beginner alike.

• Spectral measurements
• Quantum yield
• Lifetimes
• Polarization anisotropy
• FRET
• Time-correlated single-photon counting
• Multi-frequency phase-modulation
• Imaging
• Microscopy

All using the latest developments in instrumentation from the FluoroLog, FluoroMax, NanoLog, FluoroCube, TemPro, MF2 and DynaMyc product ranges.
