Electron microscopy Facility University of Lausanne
As a core facility dedicated to service at the Faculty of Biology and Medicine, we serve in priority investigators from all departments of the UNIL. We are providing full service, training on all our instruments and autonomous access to trained users. External users are welcome to contact us to discuss opportunities.
After having received efficient and didactic trainings from TFS and Leica, we are practising the cryo-CLEM workflow! Olivia, Damien and Jean are working hard on each step but the workflow is smooth so far.. Thanks to all the suppliers, UNIL logisitics, TFS and Leica service engineers and trainers ! it is magic to observe the fluorescence signal on a frozen grid…
We have the pleasure to welcome Wei Jiao PhD as post-doc. She is developing complicated CLEM workflows in order to assess what type of services the EMF will be able to offer in the future. Concentrating on neuroscience project, she will evaluate and make proofs-of-concept for new approaches before teaching them to the team. She will also provide these approaches as service once they have been fully proofed and are routine, meaning cost-efficient for our users.
On 11th November, children can join their parents to work. EMF welcomed many groups of children who discover the magic of Scanning Electron Microscopy with our team, among them the details of a bee eye…
Olivia Muriel Lopez PhD is an expert in in-situ CLEM . She is working with us to offer this technique and others CLEM approaches to our users. She is working 50% with us and 50% with the group of Pr Sophie Martin. We are looking forward to work together!
