The 2018 Society for Low Temperature Biology (SLTB) meeting will be taking place at the Crop Research Institute, Prague on the 6thand 7th September 2018.
The Society was founded in 1964 with the purpose of promoting research into the effects of low temperatures on all types of organisms and their constituent cells, tissues and organs. Such studies have applications in diverse scientific fields, from biology and medicine to engineering, conservation and environmental science.
SLTB members come from a range of disciplines, but all share a common interest in understanding relationships between low temperatures and biological systems. The objectives of the SLTB are:
- To advance the education of the public in the science of low temperature biology.
- To advance the science of low temperature biology.
- To promote research into the science of low temperature biology and;
- Disseminate the useful results to the public.
Topic areas range from natural mechanisms of cold tolerance, the cryopreservation of cells and tissues for medical, agricultural and conservation purposes, low temperature microscopy, through to the physics and physical chemistry of water and ice; and heat and mass transfer in all types of biological systems.
As a pioneering company within this field Planer will be attending this meeting to demonstrate our latest Cryogenic equipment.
