Met amazing people at my first #3DEM @GRC this week! . For those who missed #3DEM, I am pleased to announce that I will be joining @Princeton @PrincetonMolBio in just 2 months as a core manager to lead the cryoEM efforts. Stay tuned for great science to come! #CryoEM #Teamtomo.

Please check out @scipion_em smartscope plugin to feedback your preprocessing data to SmartScope. Now in Beta!.

#CryoEM SmartScope v0.9.2 is out!.Here are a few upgrades:.- Aperture Control w/ SerialEM 4.1-beta @Nexperion .- Great progress on CryoARM support. - More flexibility about data storage locations. - Easier installation procedure. Full notes at:

I received a broken litre of hot sauce from @Walmart and other items that got ruined during shipping . No offer to reship nor honor the prices at the time of purchase . They offered a refund- that's it. #doneWithWalmart.#CustomerExperience.Wouldn't have happened @Target

From having first-hand experience with this software, it is incredible. The tomo part particularly, fills a gap in the field. Never build a tomogram manually again. And for SPA preprocessing, you can't get faster than this with parallelization up to your cluster limits.

I was considering switching my @djangoproject to a @JavaScript frontend until I discovered @htmx_org! I very much love to focus on writing python and have everything in one place.

SmartScope v0.9 collecting at a rate of 421 movies/h on R2/1, 7-shots per hole, very conservative 4.5um max beam-image shift. Setup time after the scope was aligned: 20 min. Fully automated from there. 😅Just need to improve the display of the targets at the medium mag now.

Smartscope Documentation now has its own repository

Simply provide a few information and SmartScope will suggest optimized multishot per hole pattern with some stats about total hole coverage and fraction of the images that is within the hole.

SmartScope v0.9 is out! . Highlights of the release are (details in thread):.- Multishot per hole.- Automatic focus position from hole lattice orientation and spacing. - Redesigned docs website. Join our Google group! (

SmartScope now has a forum for discussion. Please join! Oh . and also multi-shot per hole with automated pattern is in beta.

Today I tried the Light ‘em up to set collection on a grid where i knew there were a lot of empty holes. It worked nicely! Look at all the crappy data I can skip! Thanks @WimJHH for the tool.
