The University of Manchester Research Institute (UMRI) Pump Prime Call Launch Event
The University of Manchester Research Institute (UMRI) will be launching the latest round of pump-priming awards in January 2025. The call aims to encourage collaboration and provide support for activities that will lead to an increase in successful interdisciplinary research. Awards of up to £50K available, you’ll have one year to explore...
Training Course on Visualisation & quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day in person training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray...
Lovell Lecture: Chaos at Cosmic Dawn
Chaos at Cosmic Dawn: Where did the first stars and galaxies come from? A Lovell Lecture by Professor Phil Bull, Cosmologist Embark on an extraordinary voyage through space and time at Jodrell Bank as we explore the Universe's earliest moments. Through the remarkable eyes of the James Webb Space Telescope, we're uncovering mysteries that challenge...
Training Course on In situ experiments and Digital Volume Correlation
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
Training Course on Advanced Scripting and Batching of Tomographic Datasets
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
