Background to FISA

Fluorescence microscopy embraces a range of exciting new techniques which are of interest to the cell biologist and molecular scientist alike. Many researchers are discovering the potential of fluorescence for its specificity and versatility in labelling and identifying an increasing range of structural features and indeed specific molecular species.

The first meeting of Fluorescence Imagers SA, held at Adelaide Microscopy in September 2003, was a resounding success. The small informal meeting, which we initially estimated might bring 10 - 15 participants to Adelaide Microscopy, quickly blew out to a spectacular 60-plus get together! Quite clearly fluorescence microscopy is a growing field in South Australia. With such an encouraging response, meetings will continue to be organised on a regular basis.

Future meetings will continue to feature presentations by researchers, and will also include (by popular demand!) at least one technical presentation on subjects ranging from general microscopy principles, to information about labelling techniques and image analysis.
