Abstract
Exploring the Power of Serial Block-Face Imaging - A Key Technology in the Volume EM Revolution
Scanning electron microscopy offers opportunities to explore intricate, ultrastructural 3D information of tissues and cells with techniques that are known collectively as volume EM (vEM). Discover why vEM has been named a key technology to watch in 2023 by Nature. Join Dr. Alice (Feng-Xia) Liang, a leader in the vEM community, to explore varied life science applications and how she uses serial block-face imaging as a key technology in her microscopy core.
In this webinar, you will learn about:
- The increasing importance of volume EM techniques for various life science research fields
- The particular strengths of serial block-face imaging
- The use of serial block-face SEM in a research-driven imaging core facility
- SBF SEM application examples
- The new serial block-face solution: ZEISS Volutome
