Das SL 3930 wurde um 1988 im VEB Starkstrom-Anlagenbau als Ergänzung zur gleichnamigen Kombination produziert. Das Gerät kombiniert ein Lauflicht-Steuergerät mit einer klassischen . Über die rückseitigen Schuko-Steckdosen können insgesamt 4 Strahler angeschlossen werden. Das SL 3930 folgte dem bereits in produzierten .

UC Berkeley's electron microscopy lab uploaded some older videos and presentations, very interesting to watch!

I liked this physical stack of images of John Kinnamon's presentation on serial section TEM (youtube.com/watch?v=uZsRGweYk7), compared to our modern image stack in computer memory.

A stack of papers of printed grayscale transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of biological tissue and different sample depth that are later used for reconstruction of the tissue structure in three dimensions.

Happy to be involved in UNICIL, our new Wellcome Trust Discovery project coordinated by @micromotility.bsky.social

We will study ciliary dynamics across scales and organisms. A long-term #postdoc position will be available at Heidelberg University @uniheidelberg shortly.

CGM: Is “More” always better? Dexcom’s G7. More Accurate
As we discussed in the first article in this series, there's a lot of marketing about having More with your CGM, whether that's accuracy or data. First up, we're going to look at Dexcom's G7, which we're told is "More Accurate".
When Dexcom tells us that the G7 is the most accu

Thanks for sharing this – will have to think about it. In our case, we built in-house the gridtape reel holders which amount to a custom stage with a mini-camera in it for identifying slots and controlling imaging. So we don't use the factory-supplied stage.

True as always that the way to make software run faster is to make it do less operations. After all, CPUs can only execute a fixed number of operations per unit of time.

Here, I tweaked code for serial section registration that drops execution time from 27 seconds to 100 milliseconds: a 270x speed up.

All it had to do is to search for matching SIFT features in one image only within a predetermined radius centered on one SIFT feature in another image. Extremely effective for when e.g., the maximum translation is known.

The matching code using a KDTree:
