The SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SOCIETY FOR MICROSCOPY & MICROANALYSIS is dedicated to increasing interest and information in all areas of microscopy and microanalysis, including, but not limited to: transmission electron, scanning electron and electron microprobe, ion probe, microbeam analysis, optical and confocal microscopies, and microspectroscopies. You are invited to join, or renew your membership in the society.
The Society generally meets four times per year at various locations throughout the greater Los Angeles area. The program usually begins with a Social Hour followed by Dinner, then a brief Business Meeting and finally the Scientific Program which consists of one or two presentations in the biological and physical sciences selected to be of sufficient breadth and interest to appeal to the entire membership.
Among our current members are students (graduate and undergraduate), post-docs, college and university professors and research assistants, laboratory directors, vendors of electron microscopes, microanalysis and/or related equipment, laboratory technicians, technologists, assistants, and many others. Their professional work spans the full range of the biological, medical and physical sciences.
