Abstract:
JPK announces the seventh annual symposium on the applications of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) in areas such as biochemical and medical research. It will be held on the 8-9th October 2008 in Berlin. The forum has become an established "must attend" event for the SPM life science community. Last year, more than 100 scientists from around the world came to Berlin to discuss their results and share scientific knowledge. Now, for 2008, the meeting has been extended to a two-day program to meet the increased demand of the audience.

JPK announce the next NanoBioVIEWS™ International Meeting: a two-day symposium on the application of SPM for Life Sciences

Berlin, Germany | Posted on July 10th, 2008

Speakers have been invited from Europe, Japan and the USA to present ground-breaking results showing the rapid advances in applied SPM technology. Once again, the meeting will feature a poster session where delegates are invited to showcase their work to their peers. With nearly half the delegates presenting data last year, this is surely one of the most interactive scientific meetings on the calendar.

Announcing this year's meeting, Torsten Jähnke of JPK said he is very excited with the response of attendees asking for a longer meeting to give more time to present their research, "This year's speakers are world-renowned in the SPM world and we are extremely pleased to be able to host this event once more."

About JPK Instruments AG
JPK Instruments AG is a leading manufacturer of nano-analytic instruments - particularly atomic force microscope (AFM) systems - for research in life sciences and soft matter. One of Germany's most innovative nanotechnology companies, JPK was among the first to recognize the revolutionary opportunities this new field would open up for biomedical and pharmaceutical research. From the beginning, JPK has tailored its instrument platforms to meet the challenges in these areas.

JPK has developed powerful state-of-the-art solutions for high-resolution imaging, force measurement, nanomanipulation and nanolithography for life science applications. At the center of JPK's current portfolio are the BioAFM NanoWizard®, the CellHesion® module (for studying cell adhesion and cell mechanics phenomena), and the TAO module (for use in optical spectroscopy). The secret of JPK's success lies in its high level of application expertise and its close interaction with leading scientists and research centers in nanotechnology.

Founded in 1999, the company is headquartered in Berlin and maintains a global network of distributors and support centers. In 2004 it launched nAmbition GmbH, a Dresden subsidiary specializing in the development of nano-instruments for application in molecular medicine and pharmaceutical research. In August 2006, this was followed by the 100% acquisition of lpi light power instruments, which is focussing on the development of optical nano-instrumentation for life science applications in research and industry.
