UltraPath XVI - Conference on Diagnostic Electron Microscopy, Basic Research & Oncology

Jan. 20, 2012

The 16th Meeting of the Society for Ultrastructural Pathology (UltraPath XVI) will be held on August 6-10, 2012 in the historical town of Regensburg, Germany.

The Society was formed in 1986 with the mission to support and promote the application of electron microscopy in pathological diagnosis and research of human diseases. Over the years the scope of biennial meetings expanded and includes immunochemistry, molecular and cellular biology.

Now in the time of rapid increase of information and paradigm change in the field of health care we are facing new challenges. The conference addresses practicing surgical pathologists, trainees, and other scientists involved in pathological diagnosis and research.

The scientific program of the UltraPath XVI will cover the traditional significant areas of pathology and following dedicated sessions:

• Tutorial - Pediatric respiratory diseases
• Ciliopathy derived human diseases
• Electron microscopy and transplantation pathology
• Electron microscopy in pathological basic research

Additionally two pre-congress workshops (Sunday, Aug 5, 2012) sponsored by industrial companies will be offered:

Microwave-assisted sample preparation
(AMW; Leica Microsystems GmbH)
TEM-cameras and software
(Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions GmbH )

We encourage you to submit abstracts for platform or poster presentations. For submission and guidelines please visit our conference website.
Abstract submission deadline: March 19, 2012

We are looking forward to welcome you in Regensburg.
