We provide academic and industrial researchers with access to state-of-the-art high-resolution electron cryo-microscopy tools and equipment.
Cutting edge
Our high-performance transmission electron microscope enables the visualisation of organic and biological specimen at near-atomic detail. It is ideal for screening and optimising cryo-samples and acquiring high-quality images for down-stream analysis.
Expert support
The facility is managed by world-class experts who provide dedicated advice, assistance, and training tailored to your project needs.
Our end-to-end services include preparation of vitrified samples, screening and optimisation, generation of high-resolution data, as well as computational processing and structure generation.
Comprehensive training
We provide individual training modules for in-depth learning of electron cryo-microscopy. Our regular workshops provide hands-on experience in cryo-sample preparation workflow.
