<div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
<ul>
<li><span>All Krioses, Glacioses, and Arcticas have been identified to within ~5% error,</span></li><li><span>A section called 'Cryo-EM tools & other scopes' has been added to catalogue other EMs like screening scopes and general equipment like plunge freezers and sputter coaters,<br>

<div>I can use your help! I have the following requests:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>For some Krioses, Glacioses, and Arcticas, I only know the city they are in instead of their exact locations. If you know the exact locations for any of these, please email me.</li><li>If you work at JEOL and have a list of sub-4 angstrom instruments (CryoARMs, 3200s, etc) to anonymously share with me, please email me.</li><li>If you have a microscope on order that is not listed, especially Tundras, please email me.</li><li>Feel free to email me a list of general cryo-EM equipment at your institute if it's not on the map already.</li><li>Any missing instruments or labs, and general feedback of course!<br>
</li></ul>
<div>With over 100,000 views, I think this map has been quite a successful project and will hopefully continue to be useful. Let's keep doing fun science in this awesome field! And let's not forget to always support each other - there are many more cryo-EM
projects than there are people to do them.</div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: 400;">A few years ago, Wen Jiang (Purdue) started a cryo-EM google map of Krioses in the USA. With the help of the cryo-EM community on Twitter, Lucas Farnung (Harvard) expanded
it to Krioses worldwide, then I expanded it to CryoARMs, Arcticas, Glacioses, Polaras/TF30s, cryo-FIB/SEMs, and 650 cryo-EM labs.</span></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;line-height:1.38; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">
<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: 400;">The idea is to geographically catalogue all cryo-EM instruments that are capable of routinely producing near-atomic resolution specimens or data, and to geographically
catalogue all labs that perform research in the field of biological cryo-EM. Hopefully this resource allows all cryo-EM scientists to know what instruments and labs exist in their geographical locations of interest so that they can plan their experiments more
efficiently and go where they are treated best.</span></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;line-height:1.38; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">
<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: 400;">I am sure that there are missing instruments, missing labs, and errors in the map. Please contact me by email or Twitter to add/fix anything. My apologies if I have missed
your lab! Note: There is a search function in the map so you can quickly locate labs and equipment.</span></p>
