Optica

Encompasses all areas of manipulation and measurement using light, from optical manipulation of microparticles to photoactivated materials and optogenetics, emphasizing new and developing application areas in biophysics and biomedicine. This meeting covers the range of optical manipulation technologies currently being developed for studies in biophysics, single molecule, single cell and tissue level analysis, optical manipulation of chemical processes in organisms, lab-on-a-chip development, optomechanical cooling, environmental monitoring and theoretical underpinnings. Technologies to be considered include optical tweezers and associated techniques, photo activated materials, optogenetics, light-activated drugs and probes and microfluidics. In this way, we will try and capture synergies between different optical manipulation technologies with a view to encouraging discussion between different user groups and the development of new hybrid techniques.

International Union of Microbeam Analysis Societies (IUMAS)

IUMAS was founded in 1994 to promote world-wide cooperation in all aspects of microbeam analysis through the organisation of an international congress on microbeam analysis every three to four years, and by participating in joint committee's with other scientific organisations in matters relevant to microbeam analysis which are better discussed on a world scale.

The Canadian Light Source will host the next International Beam Instrumentation Conference (IBIC)

IBIC brings the world's beam instrumentation community together, to explore the physics and engineering challenges of beam diagnostic and measurement techniques for particle accelerators.

Nuclear Physics,    Applied Physics (general)

The 2023 International Symposium on Room-Temperature Semiconductor X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Detectors will be held in Vancouver, B.C., Canada November 3rd to November 11th in the beautiful Vancouver Convention Centre overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the North Shore Mountains.This conference is the premier meeting on the use of instrumentation in the Nuclear and Medical fields, and we are anticipating a vibrant meeting with ample synergy and overlap between the three main areas of the conference, fostering discussions between world leading scientists that work on similar problems, but possibly in different areas.

True to tradition, the primary goal of the "Hiroshima" Symposium is to bring experts in design, processing, and applications of semiconductor tracking detectors together for discussions of experiences, lessons learned, and new ideas which are still in the early stage of development.
