Development and evaluation of cloneable nanoparticles for enhanced cellular imaging in electron microscopy.
Description
The project aims to develop new chemical tools for revealing molecules in electron microscope images of cells, addressing the contrast problem in cellular electron microscopy. It involves creating cloneable inorganic nanoparticles (cNPs) made by proteins, which encode properties in DNA. The project focuses on evaluating and refining cSeNP and other cNPs for multiplexed protein imaging.
