关于我们
Supported by the Department of Energy Of?ce of Basic Energy Sciences (BES) through their Nanoscale Science Research Center (NSRC) program, the Molecular Foundry is a national User Facility for nanoscale science serving over a thousand academic, industrial and government scientists around the world each year. Users come to the Foundry to perform multidisciplinary research beyond the scope of an individual’s own laboratory. The Molecular Foundry features world-class scientists with expertise across a broad range of disciplines and state-of-the-art, often one-of-a-kind, instrumentation. Staff spend at least half their time working with outside users, devoting the remainder of their time to internal research activities, which can be augmented with postdoctoral fellows hired using internal or external grant support. Internal research programs advance the frontiers of nanoscale science and electron microscopy by developing new capabilities that are made available to users. In this novel feedback model, users are strongly engaged to advance Foundry research: many new Foundry capabilities arise out of synergistic projects with users.

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has revolutionized structural biology, but its time resolution has often been insufficient to capture the real-time dynamics of proteins in action. But there may be a solution on the horizon: Join us on Tuesday, October 29th, 2024, for a talk by Dr. Ulrich Lorenz from EPFL! Dr. Lorenz and his team have developed a groundbreaking technique that enhances cryo-EM time resolution by 3 orders of magnitude, allowing for direct observation of nanoscale processes in action with unprecedented clarity. Date: Oct 29, 2024 Time: 11:00 AM PT Location: Onsite @ the Foundry & Zoom ?? Don't miss out on this opportunity to explore the future of cryo-EM technology! #CryoEM #StructuralBiology #ProteinDynamics #Nanotechnology #Seminar

Funds of knowledge (FoK) is a concept that describes the knowledge, skills, and cultural practices that families accumulate through their experiences. This knowledge can be used to help students learn academic concepts in the classroom. Join us TODAY (10/15) to hear from a researcher who is applying this concept to look at how we can support programs, diversity, and retention in the STEM Workforce. Laleh Coté, Ph.D., a researcher at University of California, Berkeley and staff member at Berkeley Lab is our next Molecular Foundry Seminar speaker and will give a talk titled "Leveraging the ‘Funds of Knowledge’ Framework to Support Programs, Diversity, and Retention in the STEM Workforce", hosted by the Foundry's IDEA committee. If you can't make it, look for the recording on our website, available for 30 days after the seminar. ?? When: Tuesday, October 15, 2024 ?? Time: 11 AM PT ?? Location: Zoom & onsite @ the Foundry ??

?? We're concluding our week of celebrating National Nano Day with the last episode of Foundry Fireside! Join Foundry scientist Dr. Alexander Stibor as he dives deep into the quantum features of free electrons and its importance for electron microscopy and quantum information science. Dr. Stibor focuses on two major user instrumentations (QSPLEEM and Field Emitter Characterization Set-up) at the imaging facility to study magnetic nano-materials and electron spin. In this episode of Foundry Fireside, Dr. Stibor discusses his work with a talented high school intern from Berkeley Lab's Experiences in Research summer program (run by Berkeley Lab K-12 Programs) ??
