The Contribution of Electron Microscopy to Normal Morphology and Pathology Research in Switzerland

  • Chapter
History of Electron Microscopy in Switzerland

  • 103 Accesses

Abstract

The aim of this article is to recall some major contributions of Swiss electron microscopy (EM) investigators in the fields of histology and pathology. This review does not claim to cover all investigations done in Switzerland, but to cite a few outstanding ones since the early fifties. We are conscious that possibly some colleagues are forgotten, or citation of some of their important contributions is missing in the following chapter. We hope that they will forgive us.
