Bonjour, Live μ

Live μ, the first instrument of its kind in the U.S., has landed in the Peterson (1957) Nanotechnology Materials Facility at the Koch Institute. The French-manufactured high-pressured freezer allows scientists to execute a cutting-edge strategy called correlative light electron microscopy (CLEM), where fluorescent light microscopy and electron microscopy images are taken of the same sample. The Live μ, along with the Peterson Facility’s growing suite of resources and workflows, is available to the MIT community.
