De Gennes Days on Physics of Cells - from Soft to Living Matter (PhysCell2012), Hyeres, France. The meeting will have two complementary sections: an Advanced School on Cellular Biophysics (2 to 4 September 2012) followed by the 2nd Conference in the EMBO Series on Cell Biophysics (5 to 8 September 2012). Separate registration will be possible. The advanced school is intended as a pedagogical introduction to the conference. Both the school and the conference will cover topics from various aspects of cell and tissue biophysics. Poster>>> .
ESMI (European Soft Matter Infrastructure) is an EU funded network, which offers access free of charge to facilities for physical experiments, chemical synthesis and computer simulations, to the community of European soft matter scientists.

Regional Biophysical meeting
The RBC is a series of biennial symposia intended to bring together biophysics researchers from Austria, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Serbia, Slovenia and Slovakia (a new member from 2010), and also includes internationally renowned guest speakers. The first RBC meeting took place in March 2005 in Terme Zrece (Slovenia), the second one was held in August 2007 in Balatonfüred (Hungary), and the third one in February 2009 in Linz (Austria). The principal aims of the conference are: 1) to strengthen the collaborative ties between biophysics groups in the region, 2) to present the cutting-edge achievements from a broad range of biophysics disciplines to students and 3) to promote the field of biophysics. Following previous conferences, RBC 2010 will feature a combination of top level senior researchers and aspiring young scientists (postdoctoral fellows and graduate students) from the above countries at the ratio of approximately 40%-60% for a total of 100 participants. The conference language is English.
