Special Issue of Journal of Microscopy: “Women in Microscopy: Part 1”
A special issue of the Journal of Microscopy featuring papers by women driving the development of microscopy has now been published online.
This much-anticipated issue has been edited by Michelle Peckham, University of Leeds, Ulla Neumann, Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, and Sian Culley, King’s College London.
It is the first of two special issues on 'women in microscopy' to be published in celebration of the contributions of the many women at the forefront of developments in all forms of microscopy, right across the world.
The issue (July 2023) features the following papers:
A bird's eye view on microscopy
