The BNMI 2026 Symposium will be hosted by the Finnish Advanced Microscopy Node and takes place at the Levi Summit Event Center & Panorama Hotel, Levi, Finland, 23/24-27 November, 2026.

The goal of the BNMI network symposium is to bring the Nordic imaging infrastructures and life scientists closer together to strengthen our collaboration. With these meetings we aim to encourage interactions amongst the different Nordic imaging facilities and create interactive networks in life science imaging. By active networking between imaging facilities, researchers, developers and industry we seek to improve the quality and impact of microscopy in the Nordic countries.
