The 15th European Microscopy Congress
Manchester Central, United Kingdom
was held on 16th - 21st September 2012
PS2.9: Emerging and Late Breaking topics in Physical Sciences
Session co-organisers: John Hutchison, Rafal Dunin-Borkowski
This session has two purposes. It is initially intended for emerging topics that may not match directly to other sessions. The abstract deadline remains the same as for the regular sessions (March 16th 2012), and papers will be considered for poster presentation only in the first instance. Papers are encouraged for both applied and tools and techniques-based work. The session will then remain open for late breaking submissions through to August 2012. Many of the latter submissions will be also assigned as poster presentations. A limited number of oral presentations will then be invited from all submissions to that date.
