SPAOM 2020 is co-organized and sponsored by DOITPLENOPTIC

We are glad to announce that we are sponsors and co-organizers of the Spanish & Portuguese Advanced Optical Microscopy Meeting (SPAOM) 2020 but, What is the SPAOM?

SPAOM is the congress of Red Española de Microscopía Óptica Avanzada (REMOA) and Portuguese Platform of BioImagin (PPBI). Therefore, It aims to foster knowledge sharing within the community, covering current trends and new applications about optical imaging, sample preparation, or bioimage analysis.

The event will take place from November 24 to 27 in the digital format due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Doitplenoptic & SPAOM

We attended the 2019 meeting in the city of Coimbra in Portugal. That edition impressed us because we listened to and watched extraordinary conferences, met professionals and, attended both community and industrials workshops. For those reasons, we wanted to be part of the SPAOM!

REMOA was interested in Valencia to host the 2020 meeting edition. Consequently, we started working to make this idea come true.

The effort and dedication of DOITPLENOPTIC and the 3D Imaging & Display Laboratory team of the Universitàt de Valencia allowed us to become sponsors and co-organizers of this edition.

Our CEO César Gil is on the organizing committee as well as our co-founders and scientific advisers professors Dr. Manuel Martínez and Dr. Genaro Saavedra, who are part of the scientific committee.

Thanks to the hard work of the organizers, the Spanish & Portuguese Advanced Optical Microscopy Meeting (SPAOM) 2020 will be a virtual conference with a format similar to previous years, which includes invited and selected talks, posters, industry and community workshops, and supplier exhibitions.

Scientific program

This year has been a year of many challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But the effort and commitment of the entire Advanced Optical Microscopy community made it possible to celebrate the #SPAOM20 and to organize a quality scientific program.

The congress will feature the participation of leading scientists specializing in Advanced bioimaging in cell biology, Lightfield microscopy, Superresolution microscopy, multimodal imaging.

Some workshops topics are High-Content Screening, Frugal Science, Lightfield Microscopy, Practical Applications of Deep learning for Bioimage Analysis. In the same way, the sponsors have a virtual exhibition space at the event.

Scientific staff, doctoral candidates or students, who want to participate in the congress, will have until November 8 to submit the abstract of their research work and, those interested in attending the event may register for free.

You don’t miss SPAOM 2020, join us and enjoy to best research optical microscopy science and technology to facilitate human progress.
