计划举办一次国际研讨会，包括两大 电子显微镜和光光学成像的发展及 用这些方法获得的重要生物学结果。主要领域 将涵盖快速冷冻和低温显微镜、图像处理、 高压扫描电子显微镜、电子探针 数字处理的X射线显微分析、电子能量损失光谱分析 光学显微镜、近场显微镜和共聚焦光学显微镜。这个 将要讨论的生物学结果包括亚细胞组成 心脏和血管的平滑肌，中枢神经系统， 运输上皮细胞，以及收缩的分子结构， 细胞骨架和通道蛋白。预计研讨会还将 促进参与者之间的未来互动并传递 相关领域之间的技术，进一步的发展 在开发新技术方面的跨学科协作，以及 新方法在其他相关生物和医学中的应用 研究。预计将广泛传播专题讨论会的内容 通过广泛的、国际化的和跨学科的选择 与会人员，由著名的纽约学院提供的宣传 科学丛书和在广为流传的《新闻年鉴》上的出版 约克科学院。

An International Symposium is planned to include both the major developments in electron microscopic and light optical imaging and the important biological results obtained with these methods. The main areas to be covered are rapid freezing and cryo microscopy, image processing, high voltage and scanning transmission electron microscopy, electron probe X-ray microanalysis, electron energy loss spectroscopy, digitally processed light microscopy, near-field microscopy and confocal-light microscopy. The Biological results to be discussed include the subcellular composition of cardiac and vascular smooth muscle, the central nervous system, transporting epithelial cells, and the molecular structure of contractile, cytoskeletal and channel proteins. The Symposium also is expected to foster future interactions among participants and the transfer of technologies between related fields, the development of further interdisciplinary collaborations in developing new technologies, and the application of the new methods to other relevant biological and medical research. Wide dissemination of the contents of the Symposium is expected through the broad, international and interdisciplinary, selection of participants, the publicity provided by the well-known New York Academy of Sciences Series and publication in the widely circulated Annals of the New York Academy of Science.
