We are excited to invite You to the 17^th conference in the MAF (Methods and Applications in Fluorescence) series. The MAF2021 will be held at Chalmers University of Technology in Göteborg, Sweden, between September 5 and 8, 2021.

MAF has a long-standing tradition of bringing together world-leading experts in fluorescence, one of the most powerful spectroscopy and imaging methods with applications ranging from materials research to life sciences. Our aim is to keep and develop this tradition and to gather a large number of established scientists, emerging investigators, students and postdocs to discuss state-of-the-art of this field of research. Facilitated by the convenient layout of the convention center at Chalmers University of Technology and an inspiring social program we aim at catalyzing a vivid exchange of ideas and an extensive networking among participants.

Together with our Local Organizing Committee, we hope you will be joining us for a stimulating conference and look forward to seeing you in Göteborg in 2021!

With our warm welcome,

Marcus Wilhelmsson and Bo Albinsson
