A team led by Harald Hess at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Janelia Research Campus and Eric Betzig, a senior faculty scientist in the Molecular Biophysics and Integrated Bioimaging (MBIB) Division, has devised a technique that combines cryogenic super-resolution fluorescence microscopy and focused ion beam–milling scanning electron microscopy. In a report in the journal Science, the researchers describe their technique, called cryo-SR/EM, and display some of exquisitely detailed three-dimensional images they captured of the complex innards of cells.
Nobel Prize Winner, World-Class Biophysicist to Join Biosciences
Chemistry Nobelist Eric Betzig and world-class biophysicist Na Ji will join Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley in the summer of 2017. They will serve as faculty scientists in the Molecular Biophysics & Integrated Bioimaging Division of the Biosciences Area.
