New Advances in CryoEM for Molecular and Cell Biology [WebEX]
Data: 8^th Sep & 9^th Sep
 
Cryo-electron tomography provides 3D snapshots of proteins or other subcellular structures at work within their functional cellular environments, allowing researchers to investigate how membranes, protein complexes and cellular organelles work together to carry out major processes in a cell. Cryo-ET has enormous potential for cell biology as it bridges the gap between light/super-resolution microscopy and near-atomic resolution techniques like single-particle analysis cryo-electron microscopy.
 
Recently, we are establishing our cryo-correlative light (fluorescence) and electron microscopy (CLEM) and cryo-ET for cellular ultrastructures in situ. On Sep 8 and 9, Academia Sinica and Thermo Fisher Scientific invite you to attend an introductory session on cryo electron tomography mainly for biologists. On-line demonstration will provide you an overall workflow and practical consideration for your cryo-ET experiments including steps from sample preparation to data processing and presentation. The selected talks will show you cutting-edge researches related to how cells respond to pathogenic infection, COVID-19 virus assembly inside the cell, and organelle architecture in plant cells.
 
Participation is free but registration is required for WebEX access information.

Look forwarding to meeting with you in the workshop.
