CLEM-Reg: an automated point cloud-based registration algorithm for volume correlative light and electron microscopy - Nature Methods CLEM-Reg automates the three-dimensional alignment of volume correlative light and electron microscopy datasets by leveraging probabilistic point cloud registration techniques for fast and accurate re...

Super happy to see CLEM-Reg out in @natmethods.nature.com! A short thread on the algorithm behind it and how to try it out for yourself🧡(1/9)

Seeing the Invisible with Electron Microscopy
YouTube video by Francis Crick Institute Seeing the Invisible with Electron Microscopy

If you’ve ever wondered how we get high resolution images of incredibly tiny things, check out our latest video with @em-stp.bsky.social

They discuss how electron microscopes use beams of electrons to see things that light microscopes can’t.

Ever wonder what lies beneath your fluorescence images?

Read about VP-CLEM-Kit: an accessible cost-effective pipeline for correlative light and electron microscopy, designed to be used in light microscopy facilities, research labs, and lower resource settings.

What an incredible first week for Etch A Cell - ImmunoExplorers! πŸš€

✨ 688 volunteers have together contributed 23,474 classifications (and counting!), helping us reach 72% completion of our first dataset.
