Abstract

‘Laser microdissection: a day for answers conference,’ organized by EuroSciCon (Hertfordshire, UK), hosted a large group of scientists from across Europe. Laser-capture microdissection (LCM) is a state-of-the-art technique that has made a large impact amongst the scientific community in recent times. Despite the usefulness of this technique, LCM is still relatively underused and, thus, the main objective of this conference was to increase awareness, to provide a timely overview of the diverse applications of LCM in biological research and to discuss the potential future directions of this technique. Topics covered during the day included the application of LCM in parasitology, forensic science and oncological research. In this report, we present the key summary of the day’s events and the ensuing question and answer session.
