Single Molecule Localization Microscopy Symposium
Welcome to the homepage of the 14th Single Molecule Localization Microscopy Symposium! The 2025 edition of SMLMS continues a successful series of conferences, whose scope is to bring together scientists working in the field of single-molecule localization microscopy and new super-resolution imaging technologies. Topics will include, for example, the development of new imaging methods, new fluorescent probes and labeling strategies, applications to biological questions, and new approaches to data analysis.
Bonn is home to a thriving imaging community and, moreover, the end of August is a very nice time of year to visit! We look forward to seeing you there!
We offer child care. Please register until July 4th!
2025 Edition Organizers
Ulrike Endesfelder, Mike Heilemann and Ulrich Kubitscheck
YoungSMLMS
We will also host the first youngSMLMS! This new pre-SMLMS event brings together PhD and PostDoc researchers in single-molecule microscopy. Join us for scientific exchange, hands-on image analysis workshops, career discussions, and diverse networking opportunities including our science slam and barbecue social events. You can find a program overview here.
The youngSMLMS is fully funded! There is no registration fee and we will cover accommodation for all participants who will give a talk about their work.
