Swiss Bioimaging Network
The Swiss Bioimaging network offers advices and guidance for each step, from experimental approach and acquisition to data analysis. All Swiss Microscopy Core Facilities meet at least once a year for a one day meeting to present new systems and solutions for microscopy and/or image analysis and for general networking and knowledge exchange. The Swiss Bioimaging network is a member of the Swiss Society of Optics and Microscopy (SSOM) section as well as a partnair of the LS2 network (Life Sciences Switzerland).
