The EM Summer School aims to provide a basic training in both the theory and practice of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The course covers imaging, diffraction and chemical microanalysis as well as the highly important area of sample preparation.

This course is aimed at both life science and clinical science fields, with the common fundamentals covered on day 1 and 2. The course then splits into life science and clinical orientated modules, from practical demonstrations to lectures highlighting not just the applications, but best practise as well.

This Course utilises many different sample types and fluorescent probes (DNA stains, classic antibody labels and fluorescent proteins) and these are chosen to best demonstrate particular problems and techniques. Focus is on the techniques they enable and the problems they generate, which will be applicable to any sample types.

Point of Care Testing is a rapidly growing area of diagnostic medicine and is undergoing many changes as new technologies are introduced. Our seminars are designed to provide a review of current POCT practices and innovations, and the clinical significance of the parameters measured in these settings. New individual approaches, performance aspects, and predicted future trends will also be presented in order to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the current and likely future challenges presented to those who provide health care, as well as Point of Care programme providers.

The move from CPA to ISO 15189 has left laboratories with many more challenges to address, particularly around the use of quality control materials.

The National Institute of Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) are pleased to be hosting a webinar, in partnership with the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS), addressing these challenges.

The British Association for Cytopathology (BAC) and the RCPath are delighted to be hosting the IAC tutorial in London at the new premises of the RCPath.

Following on from previous meetings the event will provide a forum for lively discussion and debate of changes happening within the profession.

Speakers will present 'Variations on a Theme - Delivery of Laboratory Services'. There are a variety of registrations available; for members and non-members of the IBMS, with supported places for those early in their career and students.

The 2018 conference for the IBMS Central Cellular Pathology Society will be held 28-30th October at the De Vere Staverton Estate in Daventry. See the attached programme and application form for more information.
