rainSTORM v3.0
Two years after rainSTORM v2.37 was released it was time for some refreshing. The rainSTORM v3.0 is here! It was tested under Matlab R2014a but it might run on older versions. (The user guide is still ‘in progress’ but the old one can help your journey.)
To start the application you have to extract the dowloaded file, change the working directory to rainSTORM and run this command: startup; rainSTORM;
Here are the highlights:
PhD graduation ceremony
Our college, József Sinkó has successfully finished the Physics PhD program at the University of Szeged. His dissertation was written under the title „Studying and correcting the optical aberrations and reconstruction errors in localization based super-resolution microscopy” and was defended with a result of 100% on May 5th at the public defence.
The doctoral conferment ceremony will take place on the 26th of June. The dissertation and the thesis synopsis can be accessed from SZTE Repository of Dissertations.
Origin and compensation of imaging artefacts in localization-based super-resolution microscopy
Interpretation of high resolution images provided by localization-based microscopy techniques is a challenge due to imaging artefacts that can be categorized by their origin. They can be introduced by the optical system, by the studied sample or by the applied algorithms. Some artefacts can be eliminated via precise calibration procedures, others can be reduced only below a certain value. Images studied both theoretically and experimentally are qualified either by pattern specific metrics or by a more general metric based on fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.

New STORM Laboratory in Szeged
After the Bólyai-building reconstruction project we finally got our new laboratory in the basement. At the moment we’re at low level hardware mode. Some cleaning has to be done, but after that, real science can start.
