About the Course

The course is aimed at beginners and intermediate users of transmission electron microscopes. After the course, participants will understand the principles of construction and function of transmission electron microscopes and will receive the extensive practice during hands-on sessions on transmission electron microscopes of varying complexity. The participants are encouraged to bring their own samples for imaging. Overview of sample preparation methods with demo, and demonstration of cryoTEM method is a part of the course, as well.
