Fluorescent Proteins and Biological Sensors II
Building on discussions from the meeting two years ago, we will showcase the development of cutting-edge tools and technology for in vivo imaging. Sessions will cover the design and discovery of new fluorescent proteins and synthetic dyes, and their incorporation into sensors for signaling molecules and cellular states. Innovative imaging modalities making use of such reagents will also be presented. It is our hope that the meeting can present a clear picture of how far these tools have come in recent years, and what additional reagents and capabilities are required to advance imaging into the twenty-first century.
