COUNTDOWN TO MICROSCOPY EVENT T
he countdown to the European Microscopy Congress 2020 (emc2020) has begun. The event will take place in Copenhagen on 23-28 August 2020. Professor Klaus Qvortrup, chair of the emc2020 Executive Board is looking forward to the event. “I am very excited. I have always wanted to see Copenhagen host an international conference. It will be the first time since the inaugural congress in 1956 that it will return to Scandinavia. By bringing it to Denmark we can share our enthusiasm for our subject with the whole community, and welcome delegates to an historic and beautiful city.”
On the subject of the scientific
content, Qvortrup is equally positive. “I believe that we have produced a balanced conference programme covering both life sciences and materials sciences, as well as light and electron microscopy and all other microscopies,” he states. “In addition, we have assembled an unparalleled list of plenary and invited speakers.” The economics of a large-scale
congress rely on strong support from the commercial side of microscopy. This brings another dimension to the event. Qvortrup is a strong believer that delegates and companies gain hugely from coming together. “A great feature of the congress is the support it receives from exhibitors.

like this provides, and I would encourage everyone to take the time to visit.” With the enthusiasm he has for the
event, it is not surprising that Qvortrup wants to welcome the whole community to Copenhagen. He concludes: “A superb scientific programme is available, and abstract submission is open. I would advise you to start planning your visit to emc2020, and to think about how you can play your part in its success.”
