MEET PROF JOACHIM FRANK!
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2017 was awarded jointly to Joachim Frank, Jacques Dubochet, and Richard Henderson “for developing cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) for the high-resolution structure determination of biomolecules in solution”
Cryo-EM has become a powerful tool that is applied in a wide range of research areas, such as microbiology, neurobiology, immunology, cell biology, developmental biology and molecular biology.
