Molecular Electron Microscopy
Location: 240 Longwood Ave. Department of Cell Biology Harvard Medical School MA, Boston 02115
| Core Summary: |
The molecular electron microscopy facility at Harvard Medical School is predominantly used for our own research (Walz lab) and can therefore not be considered a service facility. We are, however, committed to make our technology available to as many research groups in the community as possible. If you are interested to use molecular electron microscopy, please contact us by phone or email.
