Inter/Micro 2022 - 72nd Annual International Microscopy Conference

Inter/Micro 2022 - 72nd Annual International Microscopy Conference is organized by McCrone Research Institute and will be held from Sep 20 - 23, 2022 at McCrone Research Institute, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America.

Course Description:
Inter/Micro is an internationally recognized conference that attracts professional and amateur microscopists from all areas of light and electron microscopy. Research presentations include topics covering techniques and instrumentation, environmental and industrial microscopy, and forensic and chemical microscopy.

The first Microscopy Symposium on Electron and Light Microscopy was developed by Walter C. McCrone (light microscopist in chemistry) and Charles Tufts (electron microscopist in physics) and was held June 10-12, 1948 at the Stevens Hotel, now the Hilton Chicago. These meetings continued to grow with inversely proportional titles including “MICROSCOPY SYMPOSIUM” then “MICRO” and now, thanks to Lucy McCrone who came up with the name: “INTER/MICRO” (only after the RMS reclaimed the “Micro” name for their meetings in the 1960s).

You will be interested to know that the Inter/Micro symposia are believed to be the very first meetings to gather top people in light and electron microscopy together to discuss very small particles including the range of ultrafine particles that are commonly referred to today as “nanoparticles.”

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
