[3dem] Stanford Electron Microscopy-X (EM-X) Symposium - December 6, 2021

[Dunn, Lisa B.]

We are pleased to invite you to our December 2021 Stanford Electron Microscopy-X (EM-X) Symposium on Monday, December 6, 2021, 8:00-9:30 AM (Pacific Time).

SPEAKERS:
Prof. Yifan Cheng
Professor at University of California, San Francisco
Talk title: Single particle cryo-EM: from atomic structure to mechanism and beyond

Dr. Yifan Cheng is currently an Investigator of Howard Hughes Medical Institute and a Professor at Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California San Francisco. He received his Ph.D. from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, followed by postdoctoral fellowships at University of Oslo and the Max-Planck-Institute. In 1996, he received training in cryo-electron microscopy from Professors Kenneth Taylor at Florida State University and Yoshinori Fujiyoshi at Kyoto University. In 1999, he joined the laboratory of Thomas Walz to set up cryo-EM operations at Harvard Medical School. In 2006 he became faculty at University of California San Francisco and has stayed there since. He has been an HHMI Investigator since 2015. He is the recipient of the Christian B. Anfinsen Award from The Protein Society (2018), elected members of the American Academy of Arts and Science (2019) and National Academy of Sciences (2020).

Prof. Patricia J. Kooyman
Professor at University of Cape Town
Talk title: Bridging the pressure gap in TEM

Patricia obtained her MSc from Leiden University (The Netherlands), studying the selective reduction of nitrosobenzene over mixed manganese oxides. She obtained her PhD from Delft University of Technology (The Netherlands) studying TS-1 zeolite synthesis and catalytic applications. Following a postdoctoral position at Shell research centre (Amsterdam, The Netherlands), she learned all about TEM during a postdoctoral position at the NCHREM (Delft, The Netherlands). Subsequently she was appointed Assistant Professor at the Chemical Engineering department (catalysis engineering group) at Delft University of Technology (The Netherlands). She came to South Africa in 2015 as SARChI Chair Nanomaterials for Catalysis. She has always enjoyed travelling and has held many short-term visiting scientist positions throughout her career.
