#MM2025 in Salt Lake City is a wrap. Curious what events the 3DEM FIG held this past week? This thread recaps who we are and how we are engaging with the EM community in the biological sciences.
August 1, 2025 at 4:28 AM
At the #MM2025 exhibit hall?

Don’t forget to:
1. See the 3DEM FIG poster session &
2. Visit the NIH sponsored #cryoEM & #cryoET center booth (1135).
July 30, 2025 at 10:02 PM
At #MM2025 and ready to hear more biological symposia?

The 3DEM FIG symposia continues today in ballroom B.
July 29, 2025 at 2:46 PM
If you are at #MM2025 come by booth 1135 to learn more about the NIH sponsored transformative high resolution #cryoEM & #cryoET programs. We offer these technologies to the nation at no cost at the point of access.
