The electron microscopic societies provide information in the field of electron microscopy e.g. regarding

• courses, workshops and conferences
• new developments
• funding
• jobs

Check their websites for information or - even better - for getting a member:

• Swiss Society for Optics and Microscopy: SSOM
• German Society for Electron Microscopy: DGE
• Austrian Society for Electron Microscopy: ASEM
• European Microscopy Society: EMS

Each of the electron microscopy centers in Switzerland is in some respect specialized regarding its equipment. Have a look where the required tool might be available:

• ETHZ: ScopeM
• EMPA Dübendorf: Electron Microscopy Center
• UniZH: Center for Microscopy and Image Analysis
• EPFL: CIME
• UniBasel: BioEM LabC_CINA
• Uni Bern: Microscopy Imaging Cener
• Uni Fribourg: Bioimaging Core Facility
• Uni Genf: Bioimaging Center

For an impression about various electron microscopic techniques and how they could be suitable to answer your scientific question in the field of materials science, have a look at:

• Electron Microscopy; microscopy website by Frank Krumeich

For a more detailed understanding of the transmission electron microscope, why not checking:

• Tutorials in Transmission Electron Microscopy by John Rodenburg

Here you find some information about manufacturers and labs (extended but not complete):

• Microscopy Info

For some additional theory on electron microscopy as well as an experience of a real TEM interface through an online simulator, have a look at:

•  MyScope Microscopy training from Australian Electron microscopy society
