ABSTRACT
McCrone Research Institute’s 67th annual Inter/Micro microscopy conference was a pleasurable success this year, attended by leading microscopists and researchers from around the world. It was held on June 8–12 at McCrone’s lecture rooms and laboratories in Chicago.
Participants heard in-depth research presentations by amateur, professional and graduate-student microscopists, who covered advancements in instrumentation, new techniques and practical applications in various fields of microscopy and microanalysis. Presentations focused on PLM, SEM, EDS, Raman microscopy, hot-stage and infrared microspectroscopy; microchemistry; forensic trace evidence and criminalistics; pharmaceutical sciences; materials analysis; environmental health; food analysis; and air quality.
