Introduction to site.
Biological electron microscopy is a fascinating and complex subject, requiring a lot of patience the and mastery of a number of manual skills. I have created this website with the aim of providing a platform to share some of the techniques and information about EM that I have gathered over the years. If you have any questions, please contact me in the form provided on the About the Author page.
"With a microscope you see the surface of things. It magnifies them but does not show you reality. It makes things seem higher and wider. But do not suppose you are seeing things in themselves."
