Electron Microscopy prepares and images specimens by transmission or scanning EM and can also do two- and three-dimensional image processing. The lab specializes in biological EM, but also works with non-biological samples. The EM Core Lab can train users in sample preparation, microscope use, and image analysis. Common EM procedures done in the lab include thin-sectioning, negative staining, and cryogenic EM (cryo-EM).
