Cryo-electron tomography enables nanoscale structural analysis of vitrified biological cells. Data acquisition currently suffers from low throughput, in part due to the low probability of positioning cells in imageable regions of EM grids. We address this limitation by applying photolithography to position cells and specific subcellular regions on EM grids.
