SEMT meeting December 4th London

The next meeting of the Society of Electron Microscopy Technology (SEMT) will be held on 4th December 2024 at the Natural History Museum.

Affiliated to the Royal Microscopical Society, SEMT is a forum for ideas on techniques and applications in microscopy. It has become one of the foremost user groups in the country, addressing all aspects of microscopy from instrument design and specimen preparation to digital image acquisition.

The Society will this year be hosting the RMS beginners competition which is specifically aimed at students, interns, apprentices and faculty staff who may have given no more than two talks outside their home institution. We welcome talks on topics with a microscopy focus and using any form of microscopy.

The presentation slot is relatively short, encouraging an economical style and well-thought out talk and is a highlight of the meeting. Participants are allocated a 10-minute slot, to include a recommended 7 minute talk and 3 minutes for questions.

Students interested in entering should contact the Society by email

The Society is planning for an in-person meeting and will be streaming the meeting live for people who wish to attend virtually, for whom registration fees will also apply to help meet the cost of the event. Details of how the meeting will be streamed will be sent to registrants on the 12th December. Further details of the meeting will be available shortly.
