Sehen mit Elektronen
Elektronenmikroskope enthüllen erstaunliche Details winziger biologischen Strukturen wie Zellen und den Kompartimenten darin. Sie bilden auch die an biologischen Prozessen beteiligten Moleküle ab und sogar die einzelnen Atome aus denen die Moleküle aufgebaut sind. Elektronenmikroskope spielen eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Untersuchung von Krebszellen und den molekularen Prozessen, die zu Krankheiten führen. Sie finden auch in vielen anderen Bereichen außerhalb der Biologie Verwendung.
Open access to cutting-edge electron and light microscopy
The Euro-BioImaging Bio-Hub is hosted by EMBL in Heidelberg. Euro-BioImaging is the European landmark research infrastructure for biological and biomedical imaging as recognised by the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFR)
The facility provides advanced expertise in electron microscopy, from sample preparation to image analysis, for a wide variety of biological samples.
Since 2016, the Electron Microscopy (EM) facility provides advanced expertise in electron cryomicroscopy, from sample preparation to image analysis, with a focus on single particle analysis.
