Dear Petr,
BSL information is already included in the cryoEM map. Search the map for 'BSL3'. Currently, I have found 4 locations that can do BSL3 cryoEM:
* Hokkaido University - Krios G4
* French Armed Forces - Krios (G2?)
* UTMB Health - JEOL 2200FS
* eBIC - Polara
If anyone knows of other locations, I will add them. Here's a handy link for the map: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://tiny.cc/cryoem_map__;!!Mih3wA!C4xpQysKpMM6h5vlVprzuyKpBAjy2lFMtRgodsInUMkH86QHsyKdXvoQm0oH7ke8qxt2zxVAjs_UJYOHRA$
Best,
-Alex

Subject: [3dem] Cryo-EM facilities operating in high biosafety containment
Dear all,
We are writing a short review on cryo-ET approaches to study virus-host interactions where we also discuss pathogen inactivation protocols for cryo-EM and access to cryo-EM operating at high biosafety containment. There are certainly many sites where cryo-EM can be done at BSL2 but it is not so obvious how many and which academic institutions around the world can perform cryo-EM on BSL3 pathogens. As this information might be useful to the cryo-EM community focusing on infectious diseases we would like to include it. Could you please let me know if you are able to perform cryo-EM at certified BSL3 (or even BSL4) and if we can list your facility in the review?
Perhaps information on BSL could also be included in future on the Google map of High-End Cryo-EM Worldwide.
