Central Electron Microscopy Facility

Dr. Sonja Welsch

The mission of the Central Electron Microscopy Facility is to support researchers of the Max-Planck-Institutes of Biophysics and Brain Research in their electron microscopy projects. We maintain state-of-the-art equipment, provide access for researchers to microscopes and sample preparation equipment, and support researchers in using the equipment successfully.

Our Instrumentation

We maintain electron microscopy equipment and provide scientific and technical support for eligible users within the institute wishing to perform electron microscopy experiments. Our team also offers individual hands-on user training courses of sample preparation, microscope handling and data acquisition.
