Recent progress in instrumentation and fluorophore development enabled single molecule imaging and tracking in live cells and organisms. Thus, kinetic parameters of biomolecules such as diffusion coefficients, velocities, bound fractions and reaction rates as well as concentrations, stoichiometry and spatial distribution are now accessible with unprecedented resolution in the natural live environment. To extract kinetic information, different analysis approaches evolved, deviating in sample preparation, imaging requirements, algorithms and underlying assumptions. Overall, using kinetic information, physical models of cellular and organismal processes can now be devised at molecular detail, enabling predicting behaviour and misbehaviour in homeostasis, development and disease.

The symposium includes invited speaker talks, a poster session and short talks selected from abstract submissions. We particularly encourage early stage researchers to present their work.
