The Electron Microscopy Centre comprises four state-of-the-art TEM microscopes (FEI/Philips) for molecular (single particle) and cellular tomography at room- and cryo-temperatures.

The centre also has a sample preparation laboratory where users have the option to stain their samples, or freeze their samples in vitrified ice using robotic plunge freezer (Vitrobot mk4).  There is also a glow discharger, carbon coater, carbon floating bath and various other equipment you would expect to find for preparing support grids for sample application.
