Xray friends! I'm in the market for a new microscope for xtal harvesting. Samples range from barely big enough to diffract to boulders. If you're happy with yours, I'd love to know the model/make (budget <10k CAD, 7k USD, 6200 E)! We're considering the Zeiss Stemi 508. Thoughts?
Congrats to Tyler Hannah who on Friday became PhD #3 to graduate from our group at @dalchemistry.bsky.social!
Thanks to Eric Rivard for serving as external + NSERC for funding. Tyler made HUGE contributions to our science and culture over the past 4 yrs and is off to a pdf @c2mci.bsky.social!
