17-18 June 2025: 3D Cell Biology Conference
Dear colleague,
We’re thrilled to announce the international conference Innovative Imaging for 3D Cell Biology Conference, a unique event bringing together Dutch and international researchers exploring ground-breaking advancements in microscopy for studying living systems.
When: Tuesday 17 June & Wednesday 18 June 2025
Where: Supernova/Jaarbeurs, Utrecht, the Netherlands
This exciting conference is jointly organized by:
- IMAGINE! – the Dutch Gravitation consortium
- NL-BioImaging – Dutch Light Microscopy Infrastructure
- 3DNI – 3D-Nanoscale Imaging Perspectief Program
- NVvM – the Netherlands Society for Microscopy
The program features keynote lectures from world-leading experts in microscopy and cell biology: Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz, Jan Ellenberg, Scott Fraser, Mónica Bettencourt-Dias and Prisca Liberali. You’ll also have opportunities to present your work through short talks and poster presentations and connect with fellow researchers.
Key Dates:
- Abstract Submission Deadline: Friday 14 March
- Draft Programme on the website: Friday 4 April
- Early Registration Deadline: Friday 18 April
Don’t miss this opportunity to share knowledge, spark collaborations, and explore innovative imaging techniques.

Job opportunity: PI position at UMC Utrecht
Principal Investigator position open at the Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM) at University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands. This position has a transition overlap with the upcoming retirement of several PIs, including Judith Klumperman, a renowned expert in electron microscopy and membrane trafficking. The search for a new candidate is broad and primarily focused on research excellence. However, candidates with a strong interest in cell biology and/or microscopy are particularly encouraged to apply. It is worth noting that this position will be located near the research group of Nalan Liv, developing 3D CLEM methods to study organelle dysfunction in cancer, and that collaborative projects are highly encouraged within the CMM. The CMM is an interdisciplinary group of scientists working on fundamental research to understand the molecular mechanisms of diseases, with a focus on cancer. This also includes intracellular cancer-related processes, for example endo-lysosomal trafficking and exosome secretion.
We look forward to receiving applications from qualified candidates and encourage you to forward this position to possible candidates.
