Our annual meeting is recognized among the most relevant educational meetings for professionals dedicated to various fields of Cytometry, Cell Analysis, Cell Biology etc. In total we expect some 200 participants, mainly arriving from Germany and other central European countries.

Attendees will experience a number of first class lectures, prepared by the scientific board under direction of Susann Müller and the Scientific Board of the DGfZ. Thus, the related exhibition provides a unique opportunity to establish direct links to international scientists and practitioners working in the mentioned fields of expertise.

Unique possibilities have been elaborated to present your company at the comfortable facilities of the KUBUS in Leipzig. The Industrial Exhibition will take place within the KUBUS Foyer, which some of you will already know as a light-flooded and much frequented area.

Since about a year now there is discussion about the logo of the DGfZ as a subject to change. The old logo has had its merits; however, some members of the DGfZ felt there should be a clearer or simpler (also black and white applicable) statement. The new logo is imagined to cover insinuations both of flow cytometry and image analysis. This year we already use one of the new suggestions, however, this will be not a final decision.

We want you to vote for the new logo of our society which you may think is most appropriate to mirror the activities and intentions of the DGfZ.

We will present the winner logo at the member’s assembly in October 2009. There is also a price to win of about 100 € for the designer.

Venue Leipzig

Welcome to one of the most vibrant cities in Germany. Leipzig is unique. It is a
place where tradition meets dynamic, where traditional Saxon Gemütlichkeit
blends with high-tech business and where classic art and culture meets the avantgarde.
The welcome you’ll receive is cosmopolitan; you can sense it everywhere.
The winds of change certainly blow in Leipzig. The magnificent city centre is an ideal starting point for a tour. It is an area of around a square kilometre where city residences, historic arcades, as well as Gothic, Renaissance, Wilhelminian and modern buildings bear elaborate witness to almost 1,000 years of history.

Please find elevated information within a tourist map, which is provided by the Leipzig Tourismus und Marketing GmbH.

You will also find a map of the town.

Discover Leipzig on a virtual photographic tour or by panorama images.
