As part of the Physics of Life conference programme there will be a short presentation with Q and A's to outline the work of this Royal Society and their strategic vision for the Society and its communities for 2025 and beyond. Many IOP members will be familiar with the work of the RMS and they encourage members, non-members and those at the early stages of their career to attend. This short presentation is designed to outline what opportunities are available as they prepare to enter and commemorate the Decade of Microscopy in 2030. 
Talk given by Sali Davis, Chief Executive, RMS

FIDA (Flow induced Dispersion Analysis) is a first principle physics technique that measures  precisely the hydrodynamic radius of biomolecules by analyzing their dispersion  in solution under laminar flow conditions. Accurately and without size bias it can measure up to a hydrodynamic radius of 500nm without  constraints to formulation or concentration. Its ability to also determine kd (pM-mM), Kon and Koff enables a wide range of protein structure, dynamics and interaction assays to be performed on the technology platform.

Particles including droplets  >500nm become flow focused and are  visualized  as spikes that can be counted, quantified and profiled as to intensity and distribution. From an instrument perspective the small sample volume requirements, temperature regulation of sample holding and analysis chamber  and fast analysis  time make it the ideal platform for biomolecular condensate analysis.
