#cryoEM 🧪⚛️ Lena’s paper on imaging thick biological sections with STEM is finally published! We started this work almost 10 years ago. After Lena passed in 2023, I spent much of my sabbatical working with Yue and Steve to wrap this up. Also learned a lot about TEM vs STEM dose efficiency

Very cool explainer video on my field of electron microscopy! I still remember the first times I just kept zooming in and zooming in... and seeing atoms.

Release v0.20.0 · pyxem/pyxem (Finally) this release explicitly supports numpy 2.0.0. This means that we also have to drop support for pyfai. From a development side this is a really nice dependancy to remove and hopefully th...
