Join us on Friday, November 13, from 1-3 pm CEST, for the next Special Edition Virtual Pub, "Imaging Micro- and Nanoplastics."
Euro-BioImaging users and Euro-BioImaging Node experts as well as Industry partners will explore how advanced microscopy, clinical imaging, and image analysis can identify and quantify micro- and nanoplastic particles, reveal their location inside cells and organisms, and investigate their biological effects. You can find the registration link and full programme below.
