The Humboldt Research Award is granted to scientists who have had a lasting impact on their field of research. Humboldt Laureate Prof. Nigel Browning, one of the world’s leading experts in the field of electron microscopy, will spend his scientific stay at the INM and contribute his expertise to the INM research division Innovative Electron Microscopy. Browning is Professor at the University of Liverpool and Director of the Imaging Center at Liverpool (ICal).<\/p>\n
Both Prof. Browning and his host at INM, Prof. Niels de Jonge, head of the Innovative Electron Microscopy division, have pioneered the development of new methods in electron microscopy and their applications in biomedicine and materials science. The Humboldt Research Award promotes their collaboration in the further development of high-speed electron microscopy for the investigation of biological materials and processes using advanced image processing techniques.<\/p>\n
