The 21st International European Light Microscopy Initiative (ELMI) meeting had a comeback in 2022 as an in-person meeting held in Turku, Finland (7-10 June 2022). ELMI 2022 was organized by Turku BioImaging, in collaboration with the Medical Faculty of the University of Turku, Euro-BioImaging Finland and Turku Bioscience.
ELMI 2022 was a hybrid event, and a subset of the program, including the scientific presentation, was also available online. ELMI 2022 had over 500 participants, of which over 400 on site, and a very active program of talks, workshops, exhibition booths, poster presentations, discussions and social events. ELMI 2022 brought latest updates on the latest light microscopy developments, research, techniques, and instrumentation. During the morning sessions, international leaders were giving plenary lectures, while during the afternoon sessions, company workshops provided demos of the latest microscopy techniques and instruments. ELMI 2022 continued the successful tradition of bringing together microscopy users, developers, core facility staff, and industry leaders by mixing high-quality scientific talks and posters with workshops and demos of the latest imaging technologies.
