Preface

This is the ninth volume in the very popular fluorescence series, Reviews in Fluorescence, by Springer (http://www.springer.com/series/6946). To date, eight volumes have been both published and well received by the scientific community, the very first volume 12 years ago in 2004. Since that time, we have seen the continued growth of fluorescence techniques, as well as recognition for two fluorescence-based Nobel Prizes. In addition, the Journal of Fluorescence, http://link.springer.com/ journal/10895, continues to be the major repository for fluorescence-based peerreviewed publications, also a Springer journal, celebrating 25 years of publishing excellence this year. In this 2016 volume, we are pleased again with the broad and timely fluorescence content from contributors around the world. We subsequently thank the authors for their very timely and exciting contributions again this year. We hope you all will find this volume as useful as the past volumes. In closing, I would like to thank both Tanja Koppejan and Meran Owen at
