We are happy to invite you to the inauguration of our new cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) facility at MAX IV. The cryo-EM infrastructure at Lund University represents a strategic investment in life science research, while the infrastructure is led by the Faculty of Medicine as the responsible faculty, it has been strategically located at MAX IV to promote synergies with existing expertise and state-of-the-art technologies at the synchrotron facility, enhancing its visibility and scientific impact, both nationally and internationally. Through its association with one of Europe’s leading research infrastructures , the facility aims to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and broader access across faculties and external partners.
