This is not a drill!
The 2025 edition of our PhoBiA Annual Nanophotonics International Conference will take place this June!
Save the dates: 04-06.06.2025.
Follow our website and social media to stay updated on future announcements and registration.
But most importantly:
PhoBiA starts a new chapter in its history: we want to retire the old logo of our association and replace it with a new, modern design. We would like to ask our current and prospective members to help us create it!
Submit your logo ideas through this form.
Submission deadline: 04.12.24
We will award prizes to the best designs. And one of them will be chosen as the new logo of PhoBiA!
We welcome all submissions. At this stage your design does not have to be perfect, aligned, or a vector image. We will contact the author of the winning design and determine the final form of the logo together.
Useful information
Our current logo comes in two forms:
The banner form:
The square form:
You can choose to design either a banner or square logo or both.
We would like the new logo to have our name – PhoBiA, but not the full name. As we primary use it on conference posters or slides, the letters of the full name get too small.
We would like the new logo to reflect our scientific interests which include : microscopy, liquid crystals, optics, spectroscopy, fluorescence, structural biology, medical applications of light, nanomaterials.
We ask that the logo be your original work, and not constitute of pieces of someone else’s intellectual property.
It is with immense pleasure that we reflect on this year’s edition of our Microscopic Art Non-Limited International Annual Contest.

We would like to jubilantly announce the winners of MANAIC 2024

Website malfunction notice
Our website is currently experiencing technical difficulties. The original version of this post has been lost. We are currently unable to upload photos to our website. Because of that we can not prepare the usual gallery of all the photos sent to us. We are working to solve this issue. Thank you for your understanding.
We are happy to inform you, that we’ve added a few more days for you to register for MANIAC 2024!

If you just returned from the beach, now is the time to dust off your flash drive with your microscopy photos and send them to our contest! Good luck! We can’t wait to see your masterpiece at our exhibition in the market square.
With summer in full swing you might be enjoying some well earned rest, or (more likely) finally catching up with your scientific goals. Whatever the case we would like to enrich your summer with some awe-inspiring microscopy art!

On 12.06.24 PhoBiA members met with our university’s rector, prof. dr hab. inż. Arkadiusz Wójs. We had the opportunity to reflect on our recent PANIC 2024 conference and discuss current and future endeavors of our association.
We end this academic year with a feeling of accomplishment and we are motivated to keep up our good work. We would like to wish all PhoBiA members, as well as our friends in Wrocław and beyond, safe, sunny and exciting summer holidays!

W środę 13.12.2023 odbyło się spotkanie wigilijne członków naszego koła. Laboratoryjne fartuchy zamieniliśmy na kuchenne fartuszki i przygotowaliśmy różne smakołyki: naleśniki, krokiety, ciasta i ciasteczka. Przy takich pysznościach i ciepłej herbatce, mieliśmy okazję jeszcze lepiej się poznać i podyskutować o studiach, badaniach i pracach koła. Dziękujemy wszystkim za przybycie i zagrzewamy do dalszego zaangażowania w działalność PhoBii. Zapraszamy również do obejrzenia zdjęć przesłanych na konkurs MANIAC, które można zobaczyć na korytarzu w Strefie Kultury Studenckiej PWr do piątku 22.12.2023.
Życzymy wesołych Świąt i szczęśliwego Nowego Roku!
