OHSU/FEI Living Lab for Cell Biology

In Oregon, a collaboration between industry and academia has resulted in the creation of a laboratory that will provide researchers with several state-of-the-art electron microscopes to advance the understanding and treatment of cancer, AIDS and other diseases. The OHSU/FEI Living Lab for Cell Biology, a joint effort of Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) of Portland, where the lab is based, and FEI Co. of Hillsboro, will be equipped with a variety of instruments made by the latter. Among them are a Titan Krios transmission electron microscope and a Helios NanoLab DualBeam instrument, which features both scanning electron and focused ion beam microscopy functions.
