Now 3/4 of the way through the @picoquant.bsky.social single-molecule meeting, and I want to share some takeaways and observations (in no particular order of importance)! If you're here, please feel free to add to this thread!

See also posts from @ritastrack.bsky.social about the @picoquant.bsky.social SMD & SR microscopy anniversary workshop.

We are running a fantastic 30. anniversary workshop @picoquant.bsky.social on Single molecule spectroscopy and superresolution microscopy. Outstanding speakers like Nobel laureates @moernerlab.bsky.social and @stefanhelllabs.bsky.social, brilliant student presentations and a nice birthday party.

We have still 3 slots for an oral presentation open.

🕒 Deadline extended – Your last Chance! There’s still time to showcase your new single molecule or time-resolved #fluorescence #microscopy method at the @spie.org BiOS conference "Single Molecule #Spectroscopy and Superresolution Imaging XIX" Submit your abstract now: ➡️ spie.org/PWB/conferen...

Dear SPIE members I would be very grateful to get your vote and represent you kn the board. Cheers from Berlin? Rainer

Something I've learned over the years is, even as an editor, giving talks at meetings opens up opportunities and connections for you that simply attending does not. This is just one small reason why organizers supporting ECRs and underrepresented scientists as (keynote) speakers is so important.

Are you an internationally-minded researcher? We just opened the 2025 call for Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Staff Exchanges: 🔹 12-month secondments for knowledge & skills exchange 🔹 €97.7 million for some 85 research projects 🔹 International collaboration in innovation Apply by 8 October!

This customer feedback was my moment of the day: "We tested the device and are enthusiastic about the #UniHarp software. [...] Our engineers called it the most useful solution delivered so far." UniHarp is a new powerful software for #TimeTaggers of @PicoQuant.bsky.social (e.g. the new #HydraHarp500

Touching workshop feedback I got the following message about @picoquant.bsky.social #single #molecule and #superresolution #microscopy workshop. This was a very emotional moment for me which I like to share. A thousand thanks Jan Schlegel!

Welcome back Caroline Berlage 6 years agao I had the priviledge to post PicoQuant´s support for #earlycarrierscientists www.linkedin.com/pulse/grants.... Now we are happy to annouce that Caroline Berlage joint us full time as a project leader in our #confocal microscopy group working.

📢 Last Call for Papers: PicoQuant's 30th Single Molecule Workshop. 📅 Due: April 16, 2025. This year's event will feature Nobel Laureates Stefan Hell @stefanhelllabs.bsky.social and W.E. Moerner @moernerlab.bsky.social alongside an outstanding lineup of invited speakers. ➡️ www.single-molecules.org

I took the stage at the #BPS2025 meeting in solidarity with our american colleagues. On March 7th, events and protests are organized in US and other countries, including France, to #standupforscience @standupforscience.bsky.social @standupforscifr.bsky.social

Supporting early stage researchers is part of our DNA. Therefore it was our pleasure to introduce a 4th award as part of the #Biophysical society meeting. Congratulations to Ashish Joshi from the group of Samrat Mukhopadhyay at #IISER Mohali. Thanks to #ClausSeidel for presenting the award.

Leonel Malacrida (@malacridalab.bsky.social) just highlighted the upcoming Gregorio Weber Meeting in his plenary talk—this time in the stunning city of Genoa. A must-attend event for anyone interested in fluorescence (and not just because I’ll be giving a talk there! 😀).

I'm thrilled to share that our review article, "Molecular Level Super-Resolution Fluorescence Imaging," has now been published online (www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...)! We provide a comprehensive overview of fluorescence super-res methods that push the limits towards molecular-scale imaging.
