Online Virology Symposium: Applications of Atomic Force Microscopy in Virology Research

Description

Oxford Instruments Asylum Research was pleased to sponsor an online virtual symposium on "Applications of Atomic Force Microscopy in Virology Research". The symposium featured a panel of four leading researchers who each described the role of atomic force microscopy in their research projects into virus structure and function. Though the COVID-19 pandemic provided special motivation for this meeting, the threat posed by viruses to our well-being is an ongoing concern. Our hope is to spark new ideas and inspire productive collaborations.
