Join Us August 4-8, 2019 in Portland, Oregon! On behalf of the Microscopy Society of America (MSA), the Microanalysis Society 2019 (MAS), and the International Field Emission Society (IFES), we are excited to invite you to Microscopy & Microanalysis 2019 in Portland, Oregon. As many of you who have previously visited Portland know, this city is a terrific location for our meeting: set between Mt. Hood Questions? and the Pacific coast, Portland (PDX to locals) presents a variety TECHNICAL MEETING CONTENT: of attractions for everybody. Infused with the awesome Pacific 2019 Program Chair Northwest culture of environmental conservation and organic Alice Dohnalkova, local food sourcing, you will find a lot of wonderful restaurants Pacific Northwest National Laboratory here, plus a myriad of microbreweries, distilleries and wineries!

Dr. Frank used his algorithms to generate the first 3D images Images and electron diffraction patterns of many 2D crystals of of the ribosome – a large structure made of several proteins and RNA bacteriorhodopsin from multiple angles were acquired using low- strands, which is responsible for translating RNA into proteins inside cells dose electron exposures, and combined to generate a 3D image in all organisms. With this distinctive technique, when combined with of the protein. He continued to refine this technique over many Dubochet’s method of ice-embedding, information on conformational years until he produced images at similar resolutions as those changes of macromolecules in their native states can be obtained, from X-ray diffraction. Later, Dr. Henderson turned his attention which enables a deeper understanding of the way ‘molecular machines’ to the development and improvement of methods of high- function in cells. Structures of many molecules that resist crystallization resolution electron cryo-microscopy and single particle structure and hence cannot be studied by X-ray crystallography can now be determination. With colleagues, he advanced these techniques elucidated. Initially, the resolution that could be obtained was limited by for exploring high resolution ultrastructure of membrane proteins, the poor performance of recording media. This technical problem was protein complexes and other non-crystalline biomolecules solved 7 years ago with the introduction of cameras capable of detecting in solution. During this journey, Dr. Henderson made critical single electrons. The development of cryo-electron microscopy has contributions to many of the single particle electron microscopy revolutionized the imaging of biomolecules and propelled biochemistry approaches, including pioneering the development of direct into a new era. By now, about 1500 structures of proteins and RNA-protein electron detectors. complexes have been solved and entered in a public database, making this knowledge a fast growing and increasingly important contribution to Dr. Richard Henderson was presented with MSA’s Distinguished molecular medicine and the development of drug therapies.
