A University of Plymouth facility that offers research and business the opportunity to examine samples and structures in microscopic detail has moved to state-of-the-art new premises.
The
Plymouth Electron Microscopy Centre (PEMC) has been working from a base on the University's city centre campus for around three decades. Following a £2.5million investment, it has now moved into larger and more modern premises at the heart of Plymouth Science Park (PSP).
Spread over three floors, the new facility has dedicated bays for each of its cutting-edge instruments in addition to multiple sample preparation laboratories, breakout spaces for discussions, workshops and presentations.
It means PEMC will be able to expand its functions and capabilities, supporting increased quantities of research activities in subjects including geology, marine sciences, engineering, plant biology, medicine, dentistry and much more.
It will also be able to build on its work with companies from the South West - in sectors ranging from food and fibreoptics to aerospace, pharmaceuticals, maritime and advanced manufacturing - and a number of the world's most prominent technology enterprises.
