The UCSF EM Core, formally the W.M. Keck Foundation Advanced Microscopy Laboratory, is located at the UCSF Mission Bay campus and provides high-end cryo-EM for biological samples. It operates two 300 kV Titan Krios (Krios 1, a G2 with XFEG, K3 and BioQuantum; Krios 2, a G4 with CFEG, Falcon 4i and Selectris X), a Talos Arctica and a Glacios (both K3), a Tecnai T12, an Aquilos 2 cryo-FIB with iFLM, and a Vitrobot Mark IV. The core also runs computing resources and developed UCSF MotionCor2.
