William E. Moerner:  “Single Molecules and 3D Super-Resolution, 3D Tracking, and Cryo-CLEM in Cells”
Channel: Purdue Engineering

2020 Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series presenter and Nobel Laureate William E. Moerner, the Harry S. Mosher Professor of Chemistry and Professor by Courtesy of Applied Physics, Stanford University 

In this lecture, William E. Moerner discuses “Single Molecules and 3D Super-Resolution, 3D Tracking, and Cryo-CLEM in Cells”.  Super-resolution microscopy has opened up a new frontier in which biological structures and behavior can be observed in fixed and live cells with resolutions down to 20-40 nm and below. Examples range from protein superstructures in bacteria to bands in axons to details of the shapes of amyloid fibrils, cell surface sugars, protein superstructures in the primary cilium, and much more.
