Transmission Electron Microscopy in Life Sciences

  • Termín: 25. 11. 2024 - 29. 11. 2024
  • Místo: IMG building

The Institute of Molecular Genetics of the Czech Academy of Sciences together with the research infrastructure Czech-BioImaging would like to invite you to attend the 5-day theoretical and practical course “Transmission Electron Microscopy in Life Sciences” (TEM).


The course is designed for beginners and intermediate users of transmission electron microscopes. Upon completion of the course, participants will understand the principles of transmission electron microscope design and operation, and will receive extensive hands-on experience with transmission electron microscopes of varying complexity. Participants are encouraged to bring their own samples on TEM grids for imaging. While the focus will be on routine TEM operation, a demonstration of the cryoTEM workflow and a brief overview of sample preparation methods are also included in the program.

The course is taught in English.

  • Get a feeling of electron microscopy in biomedicine in one week
  • Learn principles of electron microscopy and become an independent user
  • Highly experienced tutors – focus on hands-on training

The registration deadline is 1 November 2024.
