For years, the #cryoEM community viewed ~50 kDa as the practical lower size limit for SPA. This was challenged by Kim et al., who introduced the HR-HAIR method and demonstrated structure determination of proteins below 30 kDa using #CryoSPARC. Read more 👉 bit.ly/3RHMxAt
NY state friends, please do this today!
The Governor’s State of the State is tomorrow, January 13 at 1:00 PM. We are hopeful she will announce the Empire Biomedical Research Institute (EBRI).
Email the Governor and your Reps!
