Please Note :

The participation in the main conference (International Conference on Microscopy and 39th Annual Meeting of EMSI 2018) is limited to 450 participants due to logistics at the convention center and financial constraints.

Other than invited speakers, company delegates and organizing team members, all other regular delegates need to upload their abstracts (they can be co-authors as well). The selection would be based on the acceptance of the abstracts. Usually, more than one author may not be accepted.

In all the cases, priority is given to the Life Members of the EMSI. The organizers encourage applicants to visit the following website (http://www.emsi.org.in/) and send a soft copy of their EMSI membership form along with the money transfer ( 1600/- towards the life membership fee)
