This cycle we are introducing two (2) new access categories: 1) Block Allocation Group (BAG) proposals that support regular instrumentation access for up to two years with multiple projects and/or investigators, and a 2) Rapid Access Program (RAP) that provides additional Krios sessions for active single-particle data collection projects. These access categories join our existing lineup of services including the GUP access program for Krios and Chameleon sample preparation instrumentation, and the TP access program that assists users in the development of cryoEM skills needed for independent research. The next application deadline for cryoEM access is April 1, 2020. NCCAT is committed to an open and transparent application process to ensure equal-opportunity nationwide access.
