🔊 Excited to have Dr. Ebbe Sloth Andersen @esandersen as a speaker at #SynBioConf2023! His research on biomolecular nanodevices explores the folding principles of biomolecules to design novel nanoscale devices. Join us to learn about the cutting-edge advancements in biomolecular engineering! @BiomedUCPH 🦠🧪 ❕Last call to submit abstracts ❕ tinyurl.com/2na46ece

We made a small introductory movie for the talk by Joachim Frank @FrankLabCUMC tomorrow on #cryoEM @AarhusUni_int @VSelskab @novonordiskfond

The development of the Cryogenic Electron Microscope (Cryo-EM) has revolutionized our study and understanding of the smallest components of life. @dandrite @iNANO_AarhusUni @NatSci_AU @AarhusUni @PoulNissen youtu.be/AzOFSolr0j8
