Conference Description
The Three Dimensional Electron Microscopy GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
The 2025 edition will continue the tradition of highlighting cutting-edge method development in all aspects of high-resolution imaging of frozen-hydrated specimens with electron microscopy towards a structural understanding of complex biological systems. The scientific agenda will reflect advances in novel methods and instrumentation for specimen preparation in vitro and in situ, structural studies of dynamic macromolecules and their complex interactions with cryo-electron microscopy and tomography, three-dimensional multi-modal and correlative imaging, as well as computational approaches for data analysis, integration and interpretation, including machine learning-based methods. Following the tradition of 3DEM GRCs, two evening sessions are dedicated to presentations selected from posters at the meeting that accelerate exchange of emerging ideas and the discussion on the challenges and opportunities in the field.
The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include 9 sessions and the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. Please check back regularly for updates to this information.
