Seeing the Invisible with Electron Microscopy

Electron microscopes use a beam of electrons to make an image. The wavelength of electrons is smaller than the wavelength of light, which allows us to image the smallest of cell structures that cannot be seen in a light microscope. Among other things, scientists at the Crick use electron microscopy to study the structures of proteins, DNA, viruses, bacteria, yeast, cells, tissues and tumours. Analysing structures in minute detail means we can learn more about how they function, leading to new insights into health and disease. In this video, Lucy Collinson and Pippa Hawes explain the history of electron microscopy, how it works and how electron microscopes are used at the Crick.

We bring together people from different fields and specialisms to tackle some of the biggest questions in health and disease. Based in the heart of London’s Kings Cross, we’re the biggest biomedical research facility under a single roof in Europe and are home to a free public exhibition space.
