The Electron Microscope Laboratory was established in the year 1971 in the Department of Anatomy of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi. Recognizing the contribution of the laboratory and the need for the ultrastructural investigations, the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India established a Regional Electron Microscope Facility in 1983 at AIIMS, New Delhi under its RSIC/SIF program. This Center is presently known as the Sophisticated Analytical Instrument Facility (SAIF) AIIMS, New Delhi, under the SAIF Program of DST.

SAIF @ AIIMS has ones of best Electron microscopy facility in India for biological analysis. The analysis covers ultrastructural investigation using 200KV electron microscope, cryo-electron microscope, Immuno-EM analysis, surface topological analysis using SEM and metal constitutional analysis using EDAX. The facility has recently added Confocal Microscope, HPLC and FPLC into their asset.
