IMpaCT Cryo-EM Seminar with Helen Saibil

On October 21st 2020, IMpaCT had the great pleasure of welcoming Helen Saibil as our expert guest speaker in the IMpaCT Cryo-EM seminar series.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Helen Saibil's visit was organised as virtual meetings and webinar. However, that has not impaired the great interaction between Prof. Saibil and the IMpaCT team members.

Several virtual meetings with the IMpaCT coordination and selected team members were organised, during which the IMpaCT team had the opportunity to present the project mission and main activities, and the Cryo-EM network that is being established in Portugal. As well, selected PhD students and Post-docs had the opportunity to discuss their ongoing projects with Prof. Saibil. 

Prof. Saibil has shared valuable inputs and advices from her vast experience and expertise in Cryo-EM Microscopy with all our team members.

We would like to thank Helen Saibil once again for her availability to spend the day with us, and for the great lecture and discussions.
