Imaging mouse development

Conference overview

This workshop aims to bring together and help establish an emerging community with the common goal of four dimensional reconstruction of mammalian development. A number of longstanding questions surrounding the early development of mammals have been inaccessible to molecular research due to technical limitations and poor physical accessibility of these processes. How is the body plan established in the early embryo? How is morphogenesis coordinated with lineage specification? The recent revolutions in advanced light microscopy and bioimage informatics have opened up completely new avenues to address these questions and make fundamental advances in our understanding of the developing mammalian embryo.

The workshop will bring together members of the mouse developmental community, advanced microscopy, computational image analysis and, more broadly, quantitative biology to raise awareness about the available techniques and foster a discussion about how we can utilize them to resolve the outstanding questions. This will also be an excellent opportunity to have an open conversation about what tools are still needed and how to make large datasets publicly available.

Warning

EMBL wishes to warn sponsors of EMBL conferences and courses of fraudulent schemes purporting to offer sponsorship opportunities on behalf of EMBL or affiliated with EMBL officials. One current scam campaign of which we are aware is conducted using the name ‘Judy Eastman’ (judy@gopcontact.a2hosted.com) and entails approaches to sponsors offering sponsorship opportunities on EMBL’s behalf. Please be kindly advised that all relevant communication regarding sponsorship of EMBL conferences, symposia and courses is handled by EMBL directly and is sent from an official EMBL account. EMBL does not work with any external providers on sponsorship acquisition.

Please also note that:

EMBL never provides attendee lists for purchase. Any offers of such are fraudulent.
EMBL will never call or email you to ask for your credit card details or to request a payment.
