ACCS Q&A session: Optimisation and automation of microscopy workflows for near-real-time data assessment and visualisation

Much of this near-real-time data revolution has been made possible by automating and optimising a range of tasks involved in the early steps of data capture from microscopes. In this presentation, Joshua Silver will explain how existing workflows were reassessed in order to enable the near-real-time assessment and visualisation of cryoEM data. In particular, he will highlight the challenges that needed to be overcome. Finally, Josh will show how the lessons learnt in optimising and automating cryoEM workflows can be applied to other instruments and workflows from data capture through to transfer, processing and visualisation. This work was undertaken as part of the Australian Characterisation Commons at Scale (ACCS) project, under Work Package 4: “Big-data electron and correlative microscopy from instrument to publication”. Note: This event will consist of a 15–20 min presentation by Josh followed by a 40 min discussion/Q&A. 2023-06-22 14:00:00 UTC 2023-06-22 15:00:00 UTC ACCS Brisbane, Australia Brisbane Australia The Australian Characterisation Commons at Scale (ACCS) Dr Sara Motamen, ACCS Training and Community Engagement Manager (s.motamen@anif.org.au) [] [] [] open_to_all EducationcommunityCharacterisationtrainingtraining materialdataData analysisdata processingoptimisationautomationWorkflowsElectron MicroscopyMicroscopyCryoEMLiberTEM microscopeportalCryoSPARC -

Much of this near-real-time data revolution has been made possible by automating and optimising a range of tasks involved in the early steps of data capture from microscopes. In this presentation, Joshua Silver will explain how existing workflows were reassessed in order to enable the near-real-time assessment and visualisation of cryoEM data. In particular, he will highlight the challenges that needed to be overcome. Finally, Josh will show how the lessons learnt in optimising and automating cryoEM workflows can be applied to other instruments and workflows from data capture through to transfer, processing and visualisation. This work was undertaken as part of the Australian Characterisation Commons at Scale (ACCS) project, under Work Package 4: “Big-data electron and correlative microscopy from instrument to publication”. Note: This event will consist of a 15–20 min presentation by Josh followed by a 40 min discussion/Q&A. 2023-06-22 14:00:00 UTC 2023-06-22 15:00:00 UTC ACCS Brisbane, Australia Brisbane Australia The Australian Characterisation Commons at Scale (ACCS) Dr Sara Motamen, ACCS Training and Community Engagement Manager (s.motamen@anif.org.au) [] [] [] open_to_all EducationcommunityCharacterisationtrainingtraining materialdataData analysisdata processingoptimisationautomationWorkflowsElectron MicroscopyMicroscopyCryoEMLiberTEM microscopeportalCryoSPARC -
