Hello CryoEM Researchers, Pacific Northwest CryoEM Center is offering a mechanism developed to help laboratories with limited or no cryo-EM resources enter the field of cryo-EM. PNCC's "Screening Access Mechanism" will provide users on-site access to state-of-the-art cryo-EM resources and expertise to carry out sample preparation and optimization under close supervision of trained cryo-EM specialists.
Our goal is to help users identify cryo-grid conditions that will be successful for transitioning to data collection activities provided by PNCC's General Access mechanism or to establish the technical feasibility and provide guidance on the next states of the project. We hope this new mechanism will enable investigators lacking access to local cryo-EM resources and help jump-start investigators interested in entering the field of cryo-EM. For more information about our "Screening Access Mechanism", go here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/pncc.labworks.org/access/choose-access-type__;!!OLyWHuc!WRbkzpZk2YzMC6e8cuCMLj79P_Y9slTq5ZshAfmSeZ_UWlYZTAMrpq9zpeRgVi3X_Ug7jJWfiIFu1i6s8tSQEr1PVA$>. Applications are accepted on a monthly basis, with the next deadline for this proposal type being {October 1st} at 11:59pm (Pacific) in our portal here.
