Ten years after its last event, the Historical location of Marcoule welcomes the 14th AFMBioMed Summer School
21-26 August 2023
The school will offer an introduction to Atomic Force Microscopy in Life Sciences and Medicine for PhD students, post-docs, young scientists and core facility technicians/engineers.
Lectures will be complemented by hands-on tutorials to facilitate communication between experienced and novice AFM users.
AFM beginners are welcome!
Venue: Institut de Chimie Séparative de Marcoule
Local buses (line 122) make the connection between the train station: Avignon-TGV and Paniscoule (200 m from the housing)
Housing: Le chateau Val de Cèze
On Monday 21st, go directly to the housing place.
Weather forecast: Hot during the day (> 30°C), cooler in evening (< 20°C).
As all forecasts, predicting the future is uncertain!
