About
June 10th, 2025 – Institut Pasteur Amphi Duclaux
The Structural Biology and Chemistry Department together with the Center for Technological Resources and Research C2RT will run the “ICE-Day” event from 9am to 6pm in the Duclaux lecture hall.
This day will gather cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) specialists from the Paris area to exchange on results obtained at local and external facilities. The keynote speaker at the event will be Kevin Macé from the Insititut de Génétique et Développement of Rennes. Representatives of 3 French cryo-EM facilities, including the Pasteur NanoImaging Center, will present recent updates and developments.
The event is free but prior registration is required. Registration will be open until May 30th:
