Survey In-Person Workshop @SVI Headquarters
After 10 years of successful hands-on training courses at our headquarters in Hilversum, the Netherlands, and annual virtual workshops since the COVID-19 pandemic, we are considering the return of our in-person training program. One of the key reasons for bringing it back is the opportunity to reconnect with our users face-to-face and once again benefit from the valuable feedback and in-depth discussions that have always been an important part of these sessions.
Would you please fill out this short survey so we can estimate how many people of you are interested in this Imaging Workshop?
What: Workshop to get the best possible results from any microscope!
When: Spring or Fall 2027 (exact date can be discussed with participants)
Where: SVI Headquarters in Hilversum, The Netherlands. (1h from Schiphol Airport, 30min from Utrecht CS). More info
