Dr. Barnaby Levin Attending TEM Gordon Research Conference

We’re pleased to share that our Applications Scientist, Dr. Barnaby Levin, is attending the upcoming Transmission Electron Microscopy for Materials Research Gordon Research Conference, one of the premier international meetings focused on advancing the frontiers of TEM science and instrumentation, to give a talk about cutting-edge MAPS Detector Technology.

The conference, running February 15-20, brings together leading researchers from around the world to present cutting-edge, often unpublished work while fostering deep scientific discussion and collaboration. This year’s program highlights recent breakthroughs in high-resolution TEM imaging and spectroscopy, while addressing key challenges such as imaging radiation-sensitive materials, improving throughput, and resolving structures in thicker samples.

As TEM technology continues to push toward theoretical limits, meetings like this help shape the next decade of innovation in materials characterization. We’re excited to see Barnaby engaging with the global TEM community and contributing to discussions driving the field forward.
