He holds a PhD in cell biology (AHA fellow) and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Salk Institute (NIH fellow). His career has moved across academia, biotech startups, large-scale philanthropy, and now frontier AI, connected by a consistent focus on finding the leverage points where new technology can change how science gets done.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-04-10T10:19:48", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-14T09:03:37", "link_label": "Registration required (epfl.ch email address only)", "link_url": "https://forms.office.com/e/F0PALJFN3D", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Jonah Cool, PhD", "organizer": "<a href=\"http://ai.epfl.ch\">EPFL AI Center,</a> <a href=\"https://aimm.epfl.ch/\">EPFL AIMM Lab</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/nicolas.machado?lang=en\">Nicolas Machado</a>", "is_internal": "True", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120338/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/416/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70233, "title": "Cryo electron microscopy of vitreous sections revisited for high throughput tomographic imaging of tissue and cells", "slug": "cryo-electron-microscopy-of-vitreous-sections-revi", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/cryo-electron-microscopy-of-vitreous-sections-revi", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31688/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31688/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31688/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-05", "end_date": "2026-05-05", "start_time": "16:00:00", "end_time": "17:00:00", "description": "<br>\r\n<br>\r\nCellular cryo electron tomography is experiencing spectacular developments, revealing with increasing resolution and complexity the structures and interactions of macromolecules at work in living matter. To obtain thin samples from biological tissue and cells in their flash-frozen native state, cryo-FIB milling is nowadays the most popular method, with impressive successes. The alternative, cryo-ultramicrotomy - also known as CEMOVIS - has been overshadowed because of (i) technical difficulties associated to cryo-section generation and collection - in particular the lack of control over adhesion; and (ii) crevasses and compression artefacts.<br>\r\nI will present recent developments with optimization of the experimental workflow, focusing on section adhesion and their support grids. These result in high throughput data acquisition, with typically several tens to hundreds of cryo-tomograms per sample. Revisiting cutting artefacts shows that crevasses alter but 10 % of the sample volume. Compression is heterogeneous, with scale and material-dependent effects. This is altogether a drawback – with no simple computational correction – and an advantage for projects dedicated to non-(or little)-affected objects such as nucleosomes and chromatin.<br>\r\nAltogether, it is time to revive CEMOVIS as a practical alternative to cryo-FIB milling, offering specific advantages: (i) imaging of large areas of any type of sample, from cells to tissues, organs or even entire organisms – and more generally all kinds of hydrated molecular systems ; (ii) the possibility of serial section approaches ; (iii) no beam damage ; and (iv) a specimen thickness that can be tuned down to 30-50 nm, which may be an advantage for high resolution imaging of small molecular complexes.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nAmélie Leforestier is a CNRS research director at the Solid-State Physics Laboratory (LPS, Paris-Saclay, France).

Alongside a 'plurality of time', we are interested in the 'plurality of space'. Rather than transparency, it is the arrangement of different worlds face-to-face or side-by-side that creates this impression of density and richness in relationships.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTo craft sustainable development, we believe that, alongside a body of fundamental knowledge, a spirit can be cultivated through tireless attempts, including failure, to develop a 'knowledge of the hand' capable of finding new forms of expression. The countless experiences that we have accumulated at MANSLAB over the past 15 years can undoubtedly be best recounted in the form of anecdotes. An anecdote is a historical detail or a characteristic of customs or character that becomes a short, entertaining story evoking emotions such as laughter or horror.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe students’ work that I am about to present illustrates certain tested, refined and proven principles, such as the indestructible link between ideas and the hand through the slow and joyful acquisition of knowledge; the economy of means to highlight the essential; errors and non-linearity as inspiring methods in the design process; and the cultivation of empirical, manual and physical knowledge that prioritises grasping sensory, supra-sensory and memory-based reality and is capable of creating new spaces. The launch of the book ANEKDOTA will take place at the same event.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>About the speaker:</strong></u><br>\r\nMarco Bakker is born in Harlingen, Netherlands, in 1960. He first earned a degree in Civil Engineering from HTS Leeuwarden, before continuing his studies in Architecture and Urban Planning at Delft University of Technology, including spending a year abroad at EPFL. Following four years of experimentation in architecture and photography, he founded the firm Bakker & Blanc Architects (BABL) with Alexandre Blanc in 1992. At the same time, he worked as an assistant to Prof. Vincent Mangeat and visiting professor Kaschka Knapkiewicz at EPFL. From 2003 to 2009, he taught architectural design and theory at the BFH in Burgdorf. Following four years as visiting professors together with Alexandre Blanc, they were appointed associate professors at the EPFL Institute of Architecture within the 'MANSLAB, Laboratory of Spatial Manufacturing' chair from 2013 to 2025.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHe also served on the Arts and Architecture Commission of the Canton of Bern and was a member of the editorial board of Werk-Bauen & Wohnen. He chaired the jury for the Swiss Pavilion at the Venice Biennale on behalf of Pro Helvetia. Marco Bakker also regularly participates in various photographic and editorial projects related to art and architecture.<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-26T14:49:29", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-26T16:15:54", "link_label": "S'inscrire", "link_url": "http://shorturl.at/Zatib", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SG 1138", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%201138", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof. Marco Bakker", "organizer": "IA - Gesualdo Casciana", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120198/", "category": { "id": 8, "code": "LI", "fr_label": "Leçons inaugurales - Leçons d'honneur", "en_label": "Inaugural lectures - Honorary Lecture", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 59210, "title": "SNSF Starting Grants 2025", "slug": "snsf-starting-grants-2025", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/snsf-starting-grants-2025", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/21461/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/21461/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/21461/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-05", "end_date": "2026-05-05", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<p>The call <a href=\"https://www.snf.ch/en/noYHnzN47LR5qt93/news/snsf-starting-grants-2026\">SNSF Starting Grant 2026</a> will open on 1 February 2026, with a deadline for submission<strong> on 5 May 2026. </strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis call will enable researchers to lead an independent project and a team in Switzerland.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Funding: </strong>Max.<strong> CHF 1M </strong>+ applicant's salary, for max.<strong> 5 years</strong>.\r\n</p><ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Status:</strong> Applicants who do not already hold a Professorship at the submission will obtain, in case of award, a non-tenured Assistant Professor title lasting for the duration of the project.</li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Eligibility:</strong>\r\n\t<ul>\r\n\t\t<li><strong>EPFL conditions: in the 2026 call, EPFL will only support internal applicants.</strong></li>\r\n\t\t<li><strong>SNSF conditions:</strong>\r\n\t\t<ul>\r\n\t\t\t<li>max. 8 years after PhD + min. 2 years of research post PhD <strong>on 1 February 2026</strong>.</li>\r\n\t\t\t<li>Swiss link (min. 2 years of research in CH on 5 May 2026 or CH nationality or CH degree)</li>\r\n\t\t\t<li>Resubmission and parallel application rules apply, Please check the <a href=\"https://www.snf.ch/media/en/QP8QTPcH0WBr9GzN/SNSF_StG_2026_Call_Document.pdf\">call document</a>.</li>\r\n\t\t\t<li><strong>IMPORTANT</strong>: Applicants with significant experience as independent researchers and team leaders on 5 may 2026 are <strong>NOT</strong> eligible <strong>UNLESS THEY HAVE <em>NOT</em> YET RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT THIRD PARTY FUNDING</strong>:\r\n\t\t\t<ul>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>Recipients of e.g. an SNSF project grant, a Starting Grant, Consolidator Grant, or Advanced Grant from the ERC or the SNSF are NOT eligible</li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>Recipients of smaller scale fundings, e.g. Ambizione or Spark, REMAIN eligible</li>\r\n\t\t\t</ul>\r\n\t\t\t</li>\r\n\t\t</ul>\r\n\t\t</li>\r\n\t</ul>\r\n\t</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>Interested? </strong><br>\r\n<strong>> See the ReO <a href=\"https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kpz6w4nbsmxsjoH5-l4HGJyheoi6Cd9y?usp=sharing\">Toolkit </a>to check the participation status of your School/ Institute.
