Ramaciotti Centre for Cryo-Electron Microscopy
The Monash Ramaciotti Centre for Cryo-Electron Microscopy (Cryo-EM) is a leading research facility for biological electron microscopy. Our platform provides expertise in advanced electron microscopy for biomedical discoveries at the molecular and cellular level. We offer a range of bio-EM techniques from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to immuno electron microscopy, correlative light and electron microscopy, cryo-electron tomography and structure determination using single particle cryo-EM. We maintain a suite of advanced electron microscopes, including two Titan KRIOS cryo-TEMs – currently the most powerful microscopes for bio-EM.
Together with the Monash Centre for Electron Microscopy, we form the Victorian node of Microscopy Australia.
About us
