It’s a small world after all

It’s a small world after all

No really it is. Jon Hiller and I are both in Chicago and both work with imaging but that’s not the point. The point is, you might not ever get a chance to see an electron microscope in action or see an experiment live at a National Lab. So mark your calendar for another #SSHOw  

Originally shared by ScienceSunday

Join us for another Science HOA, brought to you by ScienceSunday as we talk to Dr Jon Hiller about electron microscopy! Jon is a electron microscopist in the Nanoscience & Technology Division at Argonne National Laboratory. Jon’s research includes the development of state-of-the-art electron and ion beam instrumentation for materials and nanoscale research. He is most well known for his work in 3 dimensional Focused Ion Beam (FIB) tomography and complex sample fabrication for electron microscopy. His characterization of diamond thin films has lead to the development of the artificial retina.

We will be discussing all this, along with a live on air demonstration of scanning electron microscopy! Jon has also kindly offered to allow you, the audience to choose any objects that you would like to see under the electron microscope! So if you have any questions for Jon, or suggestions for samples for imaging, please leave them on the Event page as always.

Buddhini Samarasinghe  and Scott Lewis will be hosting this event.
