Founding Technical Director
Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute, United States
Bridget Carragher received her Ph.D. in Biophysics from the University of Chicago in 1987. She worked in a variety of positions, both in industry and academia before moving to the New York Structural Biology Center in 2015 to lead the Simons Electron Microscopy Center (SEMC), together with Clint Potter. While at SEMC, Bridget and Clint directed the National Resource for Automated Molecular Microscopy (NRAMM), the National Center for CryoEM Access and Training (NCCAT), the National Center for In-situ Tomographic Ultramicroscopy (NCITU), and the Simons Machine Learning Center (SMLC). They also founded the company NanoImaging Services in 2007.
Bridget moved to her current role as Founding Technical Director of the Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute (CZII) in January 2023. The mission of CZII is to enable deep insights into the architecture of complex biological systems, at the molecular level, through the development and application of novel imaging technologies. In sup[port of this mission CZII focuses on developing technologies and methodologies to image the molecular architecture of the cell using cryo electron tomography.
