Join me with my hands-on work aligning our Talos L120C TEM, ensuring the instrument is ready for some negative stain analysis.
This can be automated, but it is a good sanity check when gauging the quality of your optics.

What’s cooler than being cool? Ice. ❄️🧊
In cryo-EM, vitrified ice preserves hydration and near-native structures so we can image biology at atomic scale. We avoid crystals… but when one appears, it’s a reminder of the clever science we use to get these images.
