A new World Wide Web (WWW) resource, the Electron Microscopy (EM) Outreach Program, offers software tools and expertise for biological electron microscopy and structural biology. It provides computational and educational resources to aid scientists in EM techniques and image analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Biological electron microscopy
  • Structural biology
  • Computational biology

Background:

  • Electron microscopy (EM) is a critical tool in structural biology.
  • Access to specialized software and expertise can be fragmented.
  • Integrating diverse structural biology techniques is often needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a centralized World Wide Web (WWW)-based environment for biological electron microscopy.
  • To provide a comprehensive resource for molecular electron microscopy and structural biology at all resolutions.
  • To integrate and link various structural biology techniques based on user requirements.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a WWW site named the Electron Microscopy (EM) Outreach Program.
  • Centralization of software tools and expertise for biological electron microscopy.
