Abstract:
The large number of interactions in nanoscale systems leads to the emergence of complex behavior. Understanding such complexity requires atomic-resolution observations with a time resolution that is high enough to match the characteristic timescale of the system. Our laboratory's method of choice is time-resolved electron microscopy. In particular, we are interested in the development of novel methods and instrumentation for high-speed observations with atomic resolution. Here, we present an overview of the activities in our laboratory.

Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
