Hands over at cryoWrite AG: Patrick Frederix (left) takes over from Andreas Engel, co-founder of cryoWrite AG. Andreas Engel will stay active in the company as chief scientific officer. With his passion and energy, he will lead new developments for the company, using his many years of experience in the electron microscopy community.

The cryoWrite AG is growing, more people are employed, and the first devices are delivered. This also means that new expertise is required. Besides his excellent knowledge of structural biologists’ needs, Patrick is experienced in instrument development, applications, and services and brings the required management background.

Patrick has worked as an application scientist at Nanosurf for the last thirteen years, leading this department over the last twelve years. In his new job, he is looking forward to joining the team to make the cryoWriter successful.

A technical solution is already in place. Now we need to show the EM community what we have to offer and how our solution can help to get excellent results faster – which is of interest in both, industry and academic research.

Patrick Frederix

We welcome our new CEO and wish him a good start.

Patrick Frederix
