Educational opportunities include a variety of Sunday short courses, tutorials, evening vendor tutorials, pre-meeting workshops, and in-week intensive workshops. The Opening Reception offers an opportunity to meet new people in the field and renew old acquaintances, and the Monday morning Plenary session features showcase talks from outstanding researchers as well as recognition of the major Society and Meeting award winners. There will be other important awards conferred during the meeting, including daily poster awards to highlight the best student posters in instrumentation & techniques, biological applications of microscopy & microanalysis, and physical applications of microscopy & microanalysis.

Each year, the sponsoring Societies offer a variety of awards and travel funding for outstanding papers from students, post-docs, and technologists. Details regarding each specific award, criteria and prize(s) can be found in the Call for Papers and on the meeting website.
