DE’s Carter Francis speaking at HyperSpy Workshop 2025 June 2-6

We’re excited to share that Dr. Carter Francis, Application Scientist at Direct Electron, will be presenting multiple tutorial sessions at the upcoming HyperSpy Workshop 2025. Hosted by Diamond Light Source, this international event brings together researchers, developers, and practitioners focused on open-source tools for advanced microscopy data analysis.

Dr. Francis will be leading sessions on Tuesday, June 3rd, Thursday, June 5th, and Friday, June 6th, guiding attendees through the use of HyperSpy, a Python-based platforms for multi-dimensional data analysis in electron microscopy and the 4D STEM extension package pyxem. His tutorials will focus on large data analysis, writing fast and scalable code for data analysis and using the pyxem to analyze 4D and 5D STEM data, offering valuable insights for both new and experienced users. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn directly from one of the field’s leading experts in electron microscopy software.

Direct Electron at 82nd Annual JSM Meeting!

Director of Sales Bob Monteverde will be attending The 82nd Annual Meeting of The Japanese Society of Microscopy. The conference will take place on May 25-27 in Sendai International Center, Aoba-ku, Sendai City, Miyagi. We’ll be at the Tega Science booth and looking forward to discussing our direct detectors, such as our Celeritas, Apollo, and DE-Series detectors, with attendees at the meeting. Please contact us if you’d like to schedule some time to talk with us at the event.

Dr. Barnaby Levin to Present at MSC-SMC 2026 in Montreal

Direct Electron is pleased to announce that Dr. Barnaby Levin will be presenting at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the Microscopy Society of Canada / Société de Microscopie du Canada (MSC-SMC) in Montreal. MSC-SMC 2026 brings together researchers and technologists from across the microscopy community for a week of scientific exchange focused on electron microscopy, advanced imaging, analytical techniques, and emerging instrumentation. The meeting will also feature a Microscopy Summer School on May 25–26, including lectures and hands-on sessions in analytical electron microscopy, imaging data processing, advanced optical microscopy, and X-ray microscopy. We look forward to connecting with attendees throughout the meeting to discuss the latest advances in cryo-EM, diffraction, and high-performance direct detectors for TEM imaging. If you’ll be attending MSC-SMC 2026 in Montreal, we hope you’ll join Dr. Barnaby Levin’s presentation and connect with our Canadian partners Edge Scientific during the meeting.
