Chris Russo and Anastasiia Gusach have developed a new method to prepare #cryoEM samples that avoids protein damage during freezing Read more: www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/a-new-method... #LMBResearch

We are happy to announce that we will have two new scientific groups led by Andrija Sente and Katerina Naydenova soon! If you are interested to join their lab as a PhD Student apply at our @imprs-lm.bsky.social www.imprs-lm.mpg.de/index.php/jo...

Improved cryo-EM reconstruction of sub-50 kDa complexes using 2D template matching www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.09.11.675606v1 #cryoem

Happy for this to be out! We have documentation and tutorials here. Please give it a try and let us know what you think. lucaslab-berkeley.github.io/Leopard-EM/

Pulsed-electron illumination does not reduce beam damage for imaging biological macromolecules www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.07.29.667395v1 #cryoem

@joshdcryoem.bsky.social will also be giving a talk about his prior work as a PhD student with Chris Russo developing strategies to take advantage of the reduced radiation damage at liquid Helium temperatures for cryo-EM. You can find their paper here: www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...

If you are going to M&M, also see postdoc @joshdcryoem.bsky.social's poster about tilted vs untilted data collection for in situ structural biology www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti....

Check out our recent review discussing the merits of tilt series vs single micrographs for in situ cryo-EM! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

At the 2024 IMC meeting, Richard Henderson laid down a challenge. Design a #TEM single-particle #cryoEM lens with 1mm Cc at 100kV. I'm thrilled to reveal our new Arxiv preprint delivering a fully retrofittable pole-piece swap out for the @jeoleurope.bsky.social 1400 TEM. arxiv.org/abs/2505.11458

In the Bay Area? Love computational cryo-EM/ET? Come join us for the first edition of FrostByte - a meeting for the local computational cryo-EM methods community! Details and registration at frostbyte-cryoem.github.io Thanks to @joshdcryoem.bsky.social and Ariana Peck for help organizing!

For a shorter read, @mrclmb.bsky.social and @science.org also have articles about the helium story. www.science.org/content/arti...

After years parked at a Polara, I’m excited to share that my PhD work is finally out! We figured out why imaging at liquid helium temperatures wasn’t working—and how to fix it. 🔗 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
