    March 22nd – 24th, 2023: We are excited to announce this new ESTEEM workshop that will share the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to move your in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) studies forward. This workshop contains lectures by experts from ER-C, Gatan, DENSsolutions, and the scientific community. Application scientists from Gatan and DENSsolutions will demonstrate these techniques on the TEMs located at the Ernst Ruska-Centre for Microscopy and Spectroscopy.
