Happy to share our cryoEM Ensemble Optimization method! 🎉It infers optimal structures and their weights directly from individual cryoEM images - no maps just physics! with David Sliva-Sánchez, @erikhthiede.bsky.social & Roy Lederman www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Cryo-electron microscopy ensemble optimization using individual particles and physical constraints
Biomolecules are inherently dynamic, and understanding their conformational ensemble distributions is essential for understanding their dynamics and biological roles. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM...

hey bsky! excited to share what i've been working on for a few years now.

cryoJAX: A Cryo-EM Image Simulation Library In JAX
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

cryoJAX is a modular framework for implementing forward models of cryo-EM image formation. these can be used to build powerful data analyses!
