Community WG (International)Remit: This international working group aims to connect and develop a community of all those practically involved in vEM techniques, across sample preparation, ancillary techniques e.g. x-ray, CLEM, and includes researchers, microscopists, data scientists, and industry partners.
Co-Chairs: Chris Peddie & Jemima Burden Training (International)Remit: To provide resources and training on both the technical skills and managerial skills relating to all aspects of vEM.
Co-Chairs: Flavia Moreira & Raffa Carzaniga Sample Preparation (International)Remit: Curation of sample preparation resources for the vEM community, including a protocol library that encompasses preparation steps through to imaging, with a focus on discussion and dissemination of knowledge around why each step is done, health and safety information, and annotations to indicate options and when they might be useful.
Co-Chairs: Nadine Randel & Michele Darrow |
Outreach WG (International)Remit: We aim to perform outreach to the wider international biomedical science community in the form of:
1) Education about the various vEM techniques. 2) Engagement of stakeholders including end users, engineers, software developers, funders and the public. Co-Chairs: Anwen Bullen & Georgina Fletcher Data (International)Remit:
1) Storage, transfer, metadata, analysis tools, archiving. 2) Long-term scope and short-term actions to be discussed. Co-Chairs: Martyn Winn & Kedar Narayan Infrastructure (UK Focused)Remit: Define, seek funding for, build and run a coordinated accessible infrastructure for vEM to meet the needs of the UK bioscience research community.
Co-Chairs: Lucy Collinson & Paul Verkade Industry Partner (International)Remit: We will create equal opportunities for information transfer and involvement between the vEM Community and Industry Partners with the goal of reducing barriers to access, building and sustaining the community.
Co-Chairs: Michele Darrow & Paul Verkade |
