<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#212121;mso-ligatures:none">This series of meetings, started by Greg Alushin at Rockefeller University and Gira Bhabha at NYU, has historically been a fantastic forum for trainees and early career faculty from across
the tristate area to share and discuss unpublished work at the forefront of cryo-EM & cryo-ET research, in a welcoming and engaging environment. I am co-organizing the 2025 meeting with
<b>Dr. Francesca Vallese</b> (CUNY Advanced Science Research Center), and we are determined to continue this excellent tradition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#212121;mso-ligatures:none">This meeting is discussion-based (15 min talks + 15 min discussion, as well as posters) and will be focused on unpublished data that spark conversations about the state-of-the art in the cryo-EM/cryo-ET
field, including technical challenges and difficult datasets. We aim to include ~140 participants from as many labs as possible located in NYC and the surrounding area (NY, NJ, PA &CT).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
