The MIC Symposium is free of charge for all members of academic institutes. A free of CHF 180.00 will be charged for participants from the industry (not applicable to sponsors of this event).

The Symposium of the Microscopy Imaging Center of the University of Bern 2026 is dedicated to “Live Cell Imaging Across Scales (in vitro and in vivo)". The three sessions will cover imaging of neuronal structure and function - from nano- to the mesoscale, live imaging of development and gene regulation and emerging techniques for in vivo imaging.
