Nordic SPM Conference and User Meeting
Catch up with the Nordic microscopy community at our meeting in Jyväskylä. Find out about new technology and how it’s being used by your peers, and give yourself a day to be inspired by what others are doing in all fields of scanning probe microscopy.
The conference will include:
- A programme of talks from invited speakers and SPM users
- Updates on the latest technological developments from Bruker
- Hands-on sessions with the Bruker Dimension Icon and MultiMode AFMs
- Networking opportunities with the Nordic SPM community
