Descripción del proyecto

Ofrecer acceso a las infraestructuras de microscopía de electrones en Europa

La microscopía de electrones constituye un método robusto de caracterización a escala atómica, que se extiende más allá de la visualización celular básica hacia el análisis de nuevos materiales en las ciencias biológicas, químicas y físicas. La iniciativa ESTEEM3, financiada con fondos europeos, es un proyecto europeo en marcha que proporciona acceso trasnacional para la comunidad científica a las principales infraestructuras de investigación de microscopía de electrones de vanguardia en Europa. El acceso se permite a través de un simple proceso de revisión interpares, y los usuarios cuentan con apoyo en cuanto a protocolos, metodologías y formación. Se hace especial hincapié en el análisis de materiales relacionados con las TIC, la energía, la salud y el transporte.

Objetivo

ESTEEM3 is an integrating activity for electron microscopy providing access to the leading European state-of-the-art electron microscopy research infrastructures, facilitating and extending transnational access services of the most powerful atomic scale characterization techniques in advanced electron microscopy research to a wide range of academic and industrial research communities for the analysis and engineering of novel materials in physical, chemical and biological sciences. ESTEEM3 objective is to deliver more access to more users coming from a wider range of disciplines. Transnational Access to ESTEEM3 centres is obtained through a transparent, simple peer review process based on merit and scientific priorities. Optimum service to users is supported by networking and joint research activities, which address key issues such as specimen preparation, data interpretation, treatment and automation through theory and simulation, and standardization of protocols and methodologies. Innovative activities dedicated to the dissemination of expertise, education and training in cutting-edge quantitative transmission electron microscopy techniques, such as schools, advanced workshops and webinars, are offered to the European electron microscopy users from academia, research institutes and industry. Directed research programmes involving the academic and industrial partners of the consortium focus on the further methodology development in imaging and diffraction, spectroscopy, in-situ techniques and metrology, and on advancing applied research of materials related to ICT, energy, health, and transport for the benefit of European scientists and industry. Moreover, the definition of strategic roadmaps and open access data policies aims to ensure the long-term sustainability of the consortium. In all, ESTEEM3 establishes a strategic leadership in electron microscopy to guide future developments and promote electron microscopy to the widest research community at large.
