George Washington University Partners with FEI to Install High-Performance Microscopes at Science and Engineering Hall

FEI and the George Washington University (GW) are pleased to announce that they are partnering to install several new high-performance microscopes at GW's Science and Engineering Hall. The new, $275 million, 500,000-square-foot research facility will soon be home to four microscopes from FEI: the Talos™ F200X transmission electron microscope (TEM), Helios NanoLab™ 660 DualBeam, Teneo™ scanning electron microscope (SEM), and CorrSight™ advanced light microscope for correlative light/electron microscopy. These systems will be used by professors and their students for research covering the full spectrum from materials through life sciences.
