Cryo-Electron Microscopy (Cryo-EM) is a form of transmission electron microscopy in which a beam of electrons is transmitted through a frozen-hydrated sample, and is used to study the molecular structure of biological samples. In this lecture, Dr. Yifan Cheng overviews the principles of Cryo-EM, and describes how advances in this technique have allowed scientists to solve biological structures to atomic resolution.
