The Electron Microscope (EM) facility enables researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute to look at cellular structures and protein complexes at high magnification. The dedicated EM operator performs the sample preparation and acquisition of data.

The EM-lab is located at the NKI, location B6. Here all the preparation of the samples and sectioning with the ultramicrotomes is done. Since September of 2015 the facility makes use of the electron microscopes at the AMC.
