Nordic Cryo-EM Network
cryoNET
Connecting world-class cryogenic electron microscopy facilities across the Nordic countries to advance structural biology research
About cryoNET
cryoNET is a collaborative network connecting cryogenic electron microscopy facilities across the Nordic countries. Our mission is to advance structural biology research by facilitating access to cutting-edge cryo-EM technologies, promoting knowledge sharing, and fostering collaboration between researchers and institutions.
Established with funding from leading research foundations, Novo Nordisk Foundation (Denmark) and Knut and Alice Wallenbergs Foundation (Sweden), our network brings together expertise from multiple facilities to solve complex structural biology challenges and drive innovation in the field.
