@MDarrow7 and @basham_mark took part in a really interesting Data Struggles Challenge Panel Discussion at the #vEMTechForum2024. The panel discussed the importance of open data and consistent metadata in research. @VolumeEM1

Dear cryo-EM women scientists,
We want to honor you and your contributions at BPS 2025.
This year, the Cryo-EM subgroup will honor a mid/senior-career woman scientist as the inaugural June Almeida awardee.
June Almeida is the virologist who first discovered the coronavirus in 1967 using negative stain electron microscopy. Her story, like many women we know, is remarkable. womenshistory.org/education-…
It is in the spirit of June Almeida’s innovative research that this award is named. The awardee, in addition to receiving an honorarium, will present their research at the BPS CryoEM Subgroup Symposium. The deadline for nominations for the Almeida Award is November 1st, and details of the award and the application process can be found at (biophysics.org/Awards-Fundin…). Nomination packets should be sent to [email protected].
Questions? Contact @OliBClarke, me, @MeghnaG27 @PilarCossio2 or @10feng
♥️We sincerely hope to see you at BPS 2025 in LA to celebrate achievements and advances in cryo-EM!

Why do we need citizen science? Take #PlacentaProfiles for example: our #volunteers picked out 2.23M potential mitochondria in just 18 months – a number that would take a single researcher years to match. The #power of the #crowd indeed 💪

@UKRI_News
£40m for @RosFrankInst will help advance research to tackle major health challenges, such as spotting early signs of Alzheimer's👩🏽🔬
They've already made great progress, including identifying antibodies from llamas which could treat COVID-19🦙

Franklin researchers, working with @thermosciEMSpec used a prototype version of the recently announced "Arctis" microscope to obtain the structure of a human ribosome to 4.9Å – achieving the highest resolution structure within a mammalian cell.

#ICYMI: Exciting work ahead to build resources and expand the #volumeEM community, supported by @cziscience and @ChanZuckerberg ⬇️
We're building a community of #researchers and #resources to enable #volumeEM - a group of techniques for #ImagingTheFuture 🔬that let us see inside of #Cells and #tissue to answer biomedical questions! Thank you for your support @cziscience @ChanZuckerberg 💜
