Visualizing Biology Across Scales.
The Wright Laboratory develops and applies cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), cryogenic correlative microscopy, and advanced computational methods to determine the three-dimensional organization of viruses, cells, and tissues. Our work combines technology development with biological discovery to reveal molecular mechanisms underlying infection, cellular organization, and disease.
Located at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, the laboratory also leads the Cryo-EM Research Center (CEMRC) and the NIH-funded Midwest Center for Cryo-Electron Tomography (MCCET), supporting researchers across Wisconsin, the Midwest, and the United States.
