A colder frontier in cryo-EM 🧪🔬

Chris Russo’s group, inc. Joshua Dickerson, adapted #cryoEM to work at liquid helium temperatures (13 kelvins), where every frame captured contains more information than the equivalent using liquid nitrogen (81 kelvins).

Some movies don’t need high definition, some movies don’t need to be seen in the theater. I believe the best way to watch US Marshals is a 17 inch black and white tv on your kitchen counter and I’ll debate Scorsese on that any time

In-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain
Mitochondria regenerate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation. This process is carried out by five membrane-bound complexes collectively known as the respiratory chain, workin...

Successful screening access completed at the PNCC. The expertise of the team at the PNCC have provided me with so much knowledge and training that I am coming home a lot more confident in my abilities. I am very excited to apply this knowledge to the budding SPP-ARC facility!

A physicist’s perspective on structural biology. Cross-discipline science ultimately leads to innovation like Alphafold!
Very fortunate to listen to Dr.Jumper talk about his work and contribution with Deepmind at the Gairdner lecture series.
