Dear Scientists,

Join us for an exciting day of exploration and hands-on experience at our Satellite Symposium hosted by the Research Institute for Health Sciences and Technologies (SABITA) at Istanbul Medipol University. This event is intricately connected to the Annual Redox Meeting of the Society for Free Radical Research Europe (SFRR-E), chaired by Emrah Eroğlu, and centers around the theme “Seeing is Believing”. The morning session, until lunch, will feature world-leading speakers who are experts in their fields. It will be limited to 250 attendees and open to everyone interested. In the afternoon, the symposium transitions into a hands-on experience held at our excellence center, officially recognized as the Zeiss Labs@location Center, with two parallel sessions for selected participants upon registration. Workshops are primarily designed for early career researchers (ECRs), limited to 50 participants, and will be selected by trainers.

Don’t miss this unparalleled opportunity to delve into the latest advancements in imaging technologies and gain valuable insights from esteemed experts.
