The Gonen laboratory will hold the 6th MicroED course in 2020. The course will be held on Zoom on December 21, 2020 from 1 PM to 6 PM, eastern standard time. The course is organized by Tamir Gonen (UCLA), Brandon Mercado (Yale), and Brent Nannenga (ASU).

We expect to hold a MicroED workshop and a developer summit in 2022 at UCLA.

Topics covered

  • Sample preparation methodologies: automated plungers vs. manual plunging and samples in LCP
  • Data collection by EPU-D
  • Camera performance
  • FIB-milling procedures for MicroED
  • Data analysis software, structure solution, and refinement

Note that the 2020 edition of this course is a virtual event!
