I have data...what now?

This section covers:

1. Data transfer.

2. Data processing.

Data transfer

External users: Hard drive or globus.

Internal users with BMRC accounts: please refer to the Internal section.


Regularly required input parameters:

-Total dose (e/A2). This should have been noted down during data collection set up.

-Desired box size (often in pix). It is often advisable to bin data for pre-processing (fourier crop value in cryoSPARC). Refer to internal pages for box size recommendations.

-Gain reference location.

-Movie location.

-Calibrated pix size...note that this does not necessarily correspond to the header in your raw movies, since it is not editable in EPU by facility managers.

Calibrated pixel sizes for Krios/Falconiv-selectris:

Acknowledging opic

It would be a great help for our facility if you could remember to acknowledge OPIC in any resulting publications, posters, and/or talks.

If you used BMRC resources as part of your visit, please also remember to acknowledge them too.
