EMBL Grenoble Group Leader Wojciech Galej was elected to EMBO membership in recognition of his excellence in research and scientific achievements. Congratulations! www.embl.org/news/awards-... #EMBOMembers2026 @wojtekgalej.bsky.social , @embo.org , @iimcb.bsky.social , @mrclmb.ac.uk

Honoured and delighted to be elected as an EMBO Member. Many thanks to my group and to everyone who has supported me throughout the years. I am deeply grateful for this recognition.

The Papp team has developed EasyGrid and EasyGrid Control, new instruments for automated cryo-EM sample preparation and quality control. These systems, recently described in the journal Nature Methods, are improving and accelerating microscopy and imaging studies. bit.ly/4wbhj3L
