Hello Photonics West
just 1h to go to start the #single #molecule and #superresolution #microscopy session in room 152 of Moscone.
Happy to see you soon.
Greetings from @picoquant.bsky.social

Now 3/4 of the way through the @picoquant.bsky.social single-molecule meeting, and I want to share some takeaways and observations (in no particular order of importance)! If you're here, please feel free to add to this thread!

Something I've learned over the years is, even as an editor, giving talks at meetings opens up opportunities and connections for you that simply attending does not. This is just one small reason why organizers supporting ECRs and underrepresented scientists as (keynote) speakers is so important.

This customer feedback was my moment of the day: "We tested the device and are enthusiastic about the #UniHarp software. [...] Our engineers called it the most useful solution delivered so far." UniHarp is a new powerful software for #TimeTaggers of @PicoQuant.bsky.social (e.g. the new #HydraHarp500

The debate between William (W. E.) Moerner and Stefan Hell has always remained in my memory and was very formative for my future career. It was simply great to be able to take part in such a unique conference as a student.

It would be fantastic to meet and exchange ideas at the 30th anniversary of the Picoquant workshop in September. I remember very well my last participation in 2019 when I was still a PhD student in Markus Sauer group.

Such feedback makes one forget the efforts of organizing such a conference for 30 years and shows how important this is for young #scientists in particular.

Partial english translation of the german message:

Dear Rainer Erdmann,
Thank you very much for the information and congratulations!

Touching workshop feedback
I got the following message about @picoquant.bsky.social #single #molecule and #superresolution #microscopy workshop. This was a very emotional moment for me which I like to share.

A thousand thanks Jan Schlegel!

Supporting early stage researchers is part of our DNA. Therefore it was our pleasure to introduce a 4th award as part of the #Biophysical society meeting. Congratulations to Ashish Joshi from the group of Samrat Mukhopadhyay at #IISER Mohali. Thanks to #ClausSeidel for presenting the award.
