Dear All, Please consider sending an abstract to QBI 2020 conference. I have attended the past two years and enjoyed it very much. It focuses on the quantitative aspects of bioimaging and so is very relevant to this community of bioimage analysts. The abstract deadline has been extended to the 9th September. Best wishes, Dominic. Dear Colleague, The abstract submission deadline for QBI 2020 in Oxford, UK, will be September 1, 2019. The conference will be held 6-9 January 2020 with the first day being a workshop day. We seek contributions in any area of quantitative microscopy. Presentations that demonstrate new approaches and methodologies are particularly welcome, including but not limited to algorithmic and software developments, physical modeling approaches, etc. The use of quantitative imaging techniques in biological applications is also of great interest. For submission details, please see the conference website (www.quantitativebioimaging.com<http://www.quantitativebioimaging.com/>) <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.quantitativebioimaging.com&d=DwMFaQ&c=ODFT-G5SujMiGrKuoJJjVg&r=vMPNHdtAHTJsN8XFNp7yRRIL7F5uF52sgeBAC7c0fV8&m=aMAruWfHB_1LotGlJEHQ82BaafxWDVE6tqaxHB1ToLI&s=rJBEbDLk-7eWmRDsb0jtrK3_jpGy_UwDnBDAOG10rtg&e=> .
