Cryo-EM of Soft Materials

 August 19-23, 2024 @ LINXS in Lund

This short intensive course focuses on cryogenic-temperature transmission electron microcopy (cryo-TEM) and cryogenic-temperature scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM) of soft matter, namely, liquid or semi-liquid material systems, biological or synthetic, in aqueous or in non-aqueous media.

Topics covered include the components of the TEM and the SEM, the principles of image and picture formation in electron microscopy (EM), the physics of electron beam-specimen interaction, specimen preparation in cryo-EM, elemental analysis in cryo-EM, and a survey of a wide range applications.

Five mornings will include 3 hours of lectures, each. Demonstrations of the microscopes and specimen preparation will be given in the afternoons. In two of the afternoons course participants will present their work, followed by discussions of the presentations and technical and scientific issues raised by the participants
