SU Imaging days 2024
CryoEM sample preparation and data collection course
The purpose of the course is to prepare and train cryoEM facility users in sample preparation methods, introduce users to the image data acquisition workflow, expand knowledge about cryoEM methods among researchers and show that everyone can learn how to use cryoEM for structural biology.
The course is open for facility users or potential facility users, such as PhD students, postdocs, and researchers within the life sciences who are curious and will profit from cryoEM skills. Swedish and international course participants are welcome. To attend, the course participants should be familiar with electron microscopy and structural biology.
Time of event: 4-6 December 2024
Location: UCEM and Chemical Biological Centre (KBC) Building, Umeå University, Linnaeus väg 6, Umeå
Deadline for registration: 1 November 2024

Mass Spectrometry Imaging Zoom seminar
Take the chance to join this Mass Spectrometry Imaging Zoom seminar on the 4th April, 15:00-16:00 (CET time). It will be given by Dr. Peter Weber from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, US. Dr. Weber is an expert in NanoSIMS imaging, as well as multiphoton microscopy and coherent Raman imaging. His research focus is microanalysis, microbial ecology, soil processes, elemental and isotopic tracers, and microbial and nuclear forensics. He has analyzed a broad range of materials, worked on methods to link microbial function and identity in complex microbial communities, and has studied microbial mineralization, symbiosis, predation, nitrogen fixation, carbon fixation, carbon cycling and phosphorus uptake. Dr. Weber is interested in correlated imaging and pushing the limits of compositional sensitivity, including developing methods to analyze viruses, cell membranes, and microarrays.
Title: “NanoSIMS studies from microbial ecology to nuclear forensics: Connecting microanalysis to the world”
