Webinar: 4D-STEM in SEM: in-situ testing of metal alloys using a MAPS direct detector, featuring Dr. Julia Pürstl of Forschungszentrum Jülich. Learn how advanced 4D-STEM reveals dynamic behavior in metals. Sign up NOW! ow.ly/c18a50Z8maF
Thank you, Sendai! Bob & Shinya had a great time at the 82nd Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Microscopy connecting with colleagues & collaborators. Looking forward to being at M&M 2026 in Milwaukee, WI and sharing the latest advances in direct detection technology!
Dose weighting is now standard in cryo-EM, but it began as Direct Electron's "damage compensation" method, first presented at the 2013 3DEM GRC. This early work helped establish the exposure-weighting approaches still used in cryo-EM software today. directelectron.com/wp-content/upl…
TODAY at MSC-SMC 2026: Dr. Barnaby Levin presents “Advances in MAPS Direct Detector Technology for Electron Microscopy” at 4:30 PM in Session 6. Join him for the latest developments in event-based detectors, 4D STEM, cryo-EM & low-keV electron microscopy. ow.ly/Ie7c50Z4OP2
Greetings from Sendai! Direct Electron is attending the 82nd Annual Meeting of The Japanese Society of Microscopy, where CEO Rob Bilhorn and Sales Director Bob Monteverde are joined by Shinya Kondo of TEGA Science, our distribution partner in Japan.
Director of Sales @bobmonteverde1 will be attending the 82nd Annual Meeting of The Japanese Society of Microscopy, May 25–27 in Sendai, Japan. Visit us at the Tega Science booth to discuss the latest in direct electron detection. Learn more: ow.ly/UkuW50Z3nsA
TOMORROW: DE's own Dr. Carter Francis continues the GLMS webinar series on HyperSpy. Part 4 focuses on how to load, visualize and process large 4D STEM datasets using hyperspy and pyxem. May 21, 12 PM EST. Learn more & register here: greatlakes.microscopy.org/Event-GLMS-Web…
Now on YouTube: “New Camera, Old Microscope.” Learn how upgrading to a modern direct detector can improve TEM performance, extend instrument capability, and maximize ROI on existing systems. Featuring Dr. Carter Francis & Dr. Paul Voyles. WATCH NOW: youtu.be/SDC6lnCdeHE
IN JUST TEN DAYS: Dr. Barnaby Levin will be presenting at MSC-SMC 2026 in Montreal. We look forward to connecting with the microscopy community and discussing the latest advances in direct electron detection with our Canadian partners Edge Scientific. ow.ly/WV0N50Z0rIi
Last chance to catch us at SEMS 2026 tomorrow in Athens, Georgia. Connect with Bob Monteverde & Michael Spilman to discuss the latest in direct electron detection, cutting-edge microscopy technology, and how you can get breakthrough results. Go Dawgs!
Day one of SEMS 2026 in Athens, Georgia is in the books. If you missed Bob Monteverde & Michael Spilman today, they’ll be back tomorrow and Wednesday sharing the latest results & new products from Direct Electron—stop by and say hello! sems.microscopy.org/2026-Meeting

ICYMI: Cryo-EM reveals how a bat coronavirus related to MERS may jump to mink — and potentially humans. Researchers from Yale and NIH used Apollo to solve the HKU5 spike–ACE2 structure, uncovering a unique binding strategy and host range. Read the study: doi.org/10.1038/s41467…
New preprint from the Rodriguez lab (UCLA): atomic structures solved by electron diffraction at room temp, in liquid. Using a simple liquid cell and a Direct Electron Apollo detector, they capture beam-sensitive hydrated crystals in their native state. doi.org/10.26434/chemr…
What if your crystal structure isn’t what your drug adopts in vivo? Drying can distort hydrates & polymorphs—creating artifacts and formulation risk. New room-temp liquid cell Micro-ED reveals true structures fast, in native state. Worth 5 min 👇 ow.ly/CRYs50YRihS
What makes our direct detectors so special? Let our customers tell you! Learn all about DE-64 & Direct Electron's other ultra-fast cameras for Electron Microscopy & CryoEM at directelectron.com/products/
TIME'S RUNNING OUT! Join us this Wednesday, April 22nd at 9 AM PDT for “New Camera, Old Microscope.” See how modern detectors can unlock new TEM capabilities—without replacing your system. Featuring Dr. Carter Francis & Dr. Paul Voyles. Register here: ow.ly/WBra50YCFar
TODAY—Dr. Barnaby Levin is at the AIMS Annual Conference at ASU's SkySong. Join the Arizona imaging and microanalysis community to exchange ideas & learn about the latest research. azmicroscopy.org/events/
NEXT WEEK! On Wednesday, April 22nd Direct Electron will be presenting a webinar: New Camera, Old Microscope - how to bring in new capabilities at a lower cost in TEM Dr. Carter Francis and Dr. Paul Voyles will show you how you can get great results! ow.ly/WBra50YCFar
