Microscopy Conference 2023

Dissecting the lifecycle of uropathogens by directly analyzing patient samples with cryo-ET

LS 6: Pathology, pathogens and diagnostics

Microscopy helps to diagnose and to understand diseases. The session will cover all applications of electron microscopy in this field, from high-resolution work by cryo-electron microscopy to routine diagnostic electron microscopy using thin section or negative staining electron microscopy.

Poster session IM 4: Development of cryo-EM instrumentation and techniques

Poster presentations

Session chairs

Technological advances steadily push the limits of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). In recent years, novel developments in cryo-EM instrumentation as well as newly established workflows enabled groundbreaking insights in both, life sciences and material sciences.
In this session we will discuss new developments in experimental cryogenic techniques, cryo-sample preparation as well as instrumental capabilities applied across different fields.
Contributions are welcome from, but not restricted to, the following areas: SEM, FIB, TEM, STEM and CLEM at cryogenic temperatures, including hardware improvements, cryo-stages, cryogenic sample preparation techniques used for EM, measurements of local temperature as well as image processing for cryo-EM.
