Thank you! The Danish BioImaging Meeting in Odense was a great success
Many members of the Danish Bioimaging community joined our first DBI-INFRA meeting in Odense, where participants from the core facilities around Denmark and representatives from manufacturing companies and Euro BioImaging meet to shape the vision and future development strategy of DBI-INFRA. A great event with interesting technology development talks, work group discussions and poster session displaying who is who within DBI. Thank you all for communicating your needs, visions and hopes for the national infrastructure for the next years. Check out the photo gallery of this meeting, and have a look at some of the presentations of the DBI-INFRA core facilities, what services they offer and the high expertise of their staff.
