Dear Lucie and Pierre, many thanks for pushing this newsletter forward! There are 2-3 items I’d like to advertise: *) We have an open position: We’re currently seeking an intern or a master student for the duration of 6+months to work on on simulating, designing and potentially building a new Brillouin microscope. Please find our advertisement attached which you could link to. *) Our work describing a full-field Brillouin spectrometer got published in Nature Photonics: https://rdcu.be/eaDiX https://www.nature.com/articles/s41566-025-01619-y Also, we are in the final stages to put together a Brillouin microscopy course at EMBL in early 2026 - please don’t post the information yet, but remind me for the next newsletter. By that time I can hopefully confirm it and share more infos!

Hi Lucie and Pierre, Thanks for checking in, hope you guys are doing well. FYI I received the previous newsletter and it was displayed correctly/nicely! (well done and thanks for doing this) Regarding any updates, see below: * I'd like to promote the international summer school: Son et Lumière 2025 (the non-French speaking folk like myself might need the "sound and light" translation :) ) which will be held in beautiful Banyuls-sur-Mer, France August 18 to 29, 2025. More information and key dates can be found here https://sel2025.sciencesconf.org/?lang=en * I have a postdoc position I would like to advertise for "ultrafast time-resolved BLS for microscopy and endoscopy applications" (beginning summer 2025) Thanks again guys, anything else just let me know!

Dear Lucie and Pierre, Thanks for your email! BioBrillouin society is a really nice community. To share the new articles and information in the newsletter is a great idea! For your question, the last newsletter was received on end of December 2024 and the letter read well in my computer. I do not have anything to share at this moment. But I would like to join BioBrillouin Society and I have replied the email to the last newsletter and I am not sure you have received it successfully. Could you please tell me how to officially join the society? How much and how should I pay the fee?

Thanks in advance :) Note: We have chosen to list in this newsletter all the publications and pre-publications you have sent us. However, we plan to keep for the next newsletter only those articles made available online after October 1, 2024, in an effort to control the newsletter's length. News from the society 8th BioBrillouin Conference in Trondheim Thank you all for attending the BioBrillouin Conference here in Trondheim, Norway! We are grateful for your participation and for the inspiring presentations that made this event so enriching. A special thanks to our keynote speakers, Henrik Jonsson, Francesca Palombo, Marketa Samalova, and Peter Torok, for their remarkable contributions. We also want to extend our gratitude to Thorsten Hamann and his entire organizing team for their incredible efforts in making this conference a success, as well as to our sponsors for their generous support.
