Visualized cryo-EM experiment

Just out, this video publication in the Journal of Visualized Experiments by the lab of Peijun Zhang, which takes us through the reconstruction of a HIV-1 capsid tube assembly from freeze plunging to final reconstruction. Though the actual method may only be of interest to those working on helical projects, this may well be the first video publication on cryo-EM you watch!
