Cryo-electron tomography: structural biology on a proteomic scale

The interior of cells can be mysterious. Join other scientists as they access the inner workings of cells in 3D and at unprecedented nanoscale resolution using cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET). Here at Thermo Fisher Scientific we are continuing to innovate to increased automation for focused ion beam milling of cell and tissues samples, providing higher throughput data and ease-of-use for tomography data acquisition, as well as faster and more advanced imaging processing workflows.
