The $8.1 million Cryogenic-Electron Microscopy Center at the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute is the only one of its kind in upstate New York.
Cryo-EM technology can freeze samples for study in an active state – a procedure that was vital in understanding SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Hauptman-Woodward CEO Dr. Edward Snell said the new facility has far-reaching impacts for the region.
“This enables companies that may not have access to this technology to use it. It takes a protein, the targets that people are looking at for disease, and provides information on what they d look like to allow for drug development,” said Dr. Snell. “It s important for academic research to promote our understanding of health and disease. And I think it s going to attract a lot of economic development within the region.”
