Our Annual European 2010 Caliper Owners Group (COG) was a great meeting! The aim of this FREE meeting was to strengthen our Caliper community by providing a forum to learn more about our technologies whilst facilitating open discussion between users. It promised to be an informative and enjoyable event and includes an exceptional line-up of expert users presenting key case studies taken from their experiences with Caliper systems. It also provided an ideal opportunity to learn about product updates, meet representatives from Caliper Life Sciences and find out more about the support framework offered through the European Team. Complimentary lunch and refreshments was provided.
