This course consists of two and half days, broken into morning and afternoon virtual lecture sessions, covering the theory of the techniques. Days 4 and 5 (Thursday and Friday) will be filled with practical demonstrations / Q&A sessions to explore the practical points of the techniques / approaches with the delegates in person (details to be agreed in consulation with delegates), should they wish to come to Nottingham. This course is designed to be suitable for anyone that wants to explore cryogenic microscopy methods to support their research and this could apply to life sciences, material sciences and beyond.

Christopher is a Research Officer in Cryogenic Electron Microscopy. His PhD is in polymer chemistry through which he developed skills in Cryo-TEM whilst investigating soft and biological systems. He recently moved into SEM, specifically Cryo-SEM and FIB-SEM of any samples where there is a nano-scale problem to solve or understand. He is keen to meet with other microscopists to further his knowledge of EM & other techniques.
Chris is currently the Editor of Microscopy & Analysis.
