Electron tomography produces quantitative 3D reconstructions from sets of 2D projections acquired at different tilting angles in a transmission electron microscope. On page 5638, P. Ercius, G. Ren, and co‐workers cover state‐of‐the‐art techniques capable of producing 3D representations of hard and soft materials, such as Pt–Pd core–shell nanoparticles and IgG1 antibody molecules, that are imaged by Molecular Foundry scientists.
