Breaking Down the Barrier of Cost: New Smaller and Cost-Efficient Electron Cryo-Microscope
Advances in technology are making it possible to develop powerful tools that are smaller, more cost-efficient, and easier to use. A new electron cryo-microscope (ECM), developed by researchers from the University of Cambridge, is a perfect example of this trend. The microscope is capable of imaging individual molecules in 3D, and it is smaller, lighter, and less expensive than existing ECMs. The new microscope has the potential to revolutionize the field of structural biology, allowing researchers to study biological samples in unprecedented detail. With its increased affordability and ease of use, this new ECM will open up countless new opportunities for research.
