Scottish Centre for Macromolecular Imaging

The Scottish Centre for Macromolecular Imaging (SCMI) is Scotland’s national cryo-EM facility, based at the University of Glasgow. Using our JEOL CRYO ARM 300 with Direct Electron Apollo and DE-64 detectors, we provide cryo-EM access to consortium members and external partners across Scotland. We also run a sample preparation lab and microscopes for specimen screening for local use.

Thanks to additional investment in the facility by the University of Glasgow’s College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences, we are looking to recruit four support scientists to work with our users.
