Cool Science: Cryoelectron Microscopy and Structural Biology at the Near-Atomic Scale

Friday June 10, 2005 1:30 - 3:30 PM

The Anlyan Center Auditorium

300 Cedar Street, New Haven

Combining supercooled samples with computational muscle, cryoEM is providing an unprecedented window on cell structure. See Yale scientists' stunningly detailed pictures of the "molecular machines" of structural biology and learn how cryoEM is being used in a variety of studies.
