Days of Electron Microscopy 2024
CEPLANT and the Department of Plasma Physics and Technology joined with the Botanical Garden, welcomed over 200 people for the event Days of Electron Microscopy 2024 in Brno. This annual event aims for the general public to promote the fact that Brno is a global metropolis in electron microscopy.
CEPLANT and the Department of Plasma Physics and Technology offered an exciting program for the general public during Days of Electron Microscopy. Lectures, lab tours, exhibition and 3D screening draw attention of many visitors. The Tardigrada model at the Botanical Garden was an eye-catcher for all those passing by the Kotlářská campus of MU Faculty of Science.
The topics of this year's event were microscopic villains. And there were a lot of them. We covered the biological villains, physics villains that hinder our attempts for microscopic imaging, and those technological ones we try to prevent or eliminate.
We look forward to the following year's Days of Electron Microscopy 2025. The topic will be "Villain or Hero: we are a family".
