DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Itai Cohen (Physics\, Cornell University\, USA)\n“
 Why should one wish to make measurements with ever increasing precision? B
 ecause the whole history of physics proves that a new discovery is likely 
 to be found lurking in the next decimal place.” (Floyd K. Richtmyer\, 19
 31)\n\nSince the days of Perrin\, microscopy methods have played an import
 ant role in the study of colloidal suspensions. Along with the continued d
 evelopment of new imaging techniques\, colloid scientists have also implem
 ented a sophisticated range of computational analyses. These analysis tech
 niques are often the unsung heroes that hold the promise of unlocking scie
 ntific mysteries at the next decimal place of colloid science. They now en
 able precision measurements of particle location and size with nm precisio
 n as well as measurements of local stresses and forces. Here\, I spotlight
  exciting recent advances we have made focusing on the analysis of simple 
 confocal microscope images of dense colloidal suspensions. I will then des
 cribe our plans for using these tools to unravel scientific mysteries rang
 ing from yielding in glasses\, training of colloidal gels\, and the stress
  networks governing shear thickening flows.\n\nhttps://lindico453.srv.lu.s
