As well as giving practical tours of the PEMC, we also have a stand in the on-campus marquee with a flash-card game, competition and beautiful graphics - which we don't usually explore with our company clients, but which help put the power of electron microscopy into context:

Pencil nib

Buttercup pollen grains

Hair knot

Ice cream

Camomile tea

Wolf hair

Tiger fur

Needle and thread

Stinging nettle leaf

Red blood cells and cilia

Schools visits

September schools visits are now fully booked (within 4 days of announcement). Sorry if you missed out this time, but we have a second series of workshops planned for Easter next year. Please contact us for more details and to book your session.

Schools' visits 2009

The E M Centre is now up and running in the new laboratory, and we are pleased to announce our annual schools' visits for A level biologists will be during the two weeks beginning September 14th 2009.

School Visits

The E M Centre is being rehoused in a purpose-built laboratory in Summer 2008, so unfortunately we will be unable to run our A-level schools' visits in September.Watch this space for updates - we hope to run a series of visits in early 2009.
