TEM Tomography in DigitalMicrograph. Gatan’s 3D Tomography Software collecting a tilt series from a sample of boron nanotubes. The three images on the top right show the focus tracking in progress, while the three images on the bottom right show the x,y tracking in progress. The large image on the left displays the collected tilt series. The palette on the top right shows the tomography control interface.

You are invited to a free webinar featuring Gatan's new 3D Tomography-Acquisition Software. Please see webinar program and registration information below.

Title: Introduction to Automated TEM Tomography Acquisition using DigitalMicrograph™
Date: Thursday, January 24, 2008
Time: 10am-11am, Pacific Standard Time, USA
 
Description: This webinar is designed for microscope operators wishing to use tomography acquisition in DigitalMicrograph.  The webinar will provide a detailed explanation of how to setup and launch an automated tilt series acquisition, along with techniques for improving data quality.  This description will cover issues related to microscope setup, microscope calibration, tomography specific setup and tomography operation. Familiarity with TEM microscope operation and DigitalMicrograph are suggested but not required. There will be a short question and answer period following the seminar.
 
Presenter Information: This webinar will be presented by Christopher Booth of Gatan Inc. Chris earned his Ph.D. in Structural Biology with Dr. Wah Chiu at the Baylor College Of Medicine where he focused on automated electron microscopy of frozen hydrated biological specimens. Since then his work at Gatan has focused on developing tomography related software, including automated tilt series acquisition (TEM, EFTEM and STEM), tilt series reconstruction and 3D Visualization for DigitalMicrograph.
