UCSF Image4

UCSFImage4 is a program for semi-automated data acquisition using FEI electron microscope. It features a simple to use interface with easy setup and minimum calibration. The program was tailored to FEI microscope with Gatan K2 Summit camera, but also works with other direct electron detection cameras.

GeFREALIGN

FREALIGN is a program developed by Niko Grigorieff laboratory for high-resolution refinement of 3D reconstruction from cryoEM of single particles. We have modified the original FREALIGN (version v8.06) to run on GPU processors so that the refinement process of single particle 3D reconstruction can be speedup. All the algorithms from the original FREALIGN are kept unchanged. For detailed description of original FREALIGN, please refer to the FREALIGN website.
