gatan digital micrograph free download and resources
Gatan Digital Micrograph (GDM) is a software package developed by Gatan, Inc. for analyzing images acquired from transmission electron microscopes (TEM) and scanning electron microscopes (SEM). It is specifically designed to work with Gatan's electron microscopes, but can also be used to analyze images from other electron microscopes with some limitations.
GDM is a powerful tool for analyzing and processing electron microscopy images, and it offers a wide range of features and functions to help users get the most out of their data. Some of the key features of GDM include:
Image processing and enhancement: GDM includes a range of tools for improving the quality of electron microscopy images, including filters for noise reduction, contrast enhancement, and color correction.
Image analysis: GDM includes a suite of tools for analyzing and quantifying features in electron microscopy images, including measurement tools, particle analysis tools, and image segmentation tools.
Data visualization: GDM includes a range of tools for visualizing and presenting electron microscopy data, including 3D rendering tools and movie making tools.
GDM is free to use for analysis purposes, and it is available for download from the Gatan website. However, it should be noted that Gatan's hardware and electron microscopes are quite expensive, and may not be accessible to all researchers. Despite this, the software has become a popular choice among those working with electron microscopy due to its powerful features and versatility.
You can download the software through a FTP link where you will need a FTP client to download the software.

Additional resources:
For advanced analysis on TEM and SEM images you need scripts to run on GDM platform. Dave Mitchell's DigitalMicrograph™ Scripting Website is one of best place to download scripts for Digital Micrograph.

News: Purdue University's School of Chemical Engineering will be renamed in recognition of a $20 million gift
Charles Davidson graduated from Purdue with a degree in chemical engineering in 1972. He has spent more than 30 years in the oil and gas business, including executive positions with Noble Energy Inc. and Atlantic Richfield Co.
Purdue says the gift will fund multiple endowments aimed at recruiting, retaining and advancing top faculty, developing new teaching and research programs, upgrading research equipment and supporting graduate students. Part of the Davidsons' gift will establish two named professorships, with one bearing their names.
Purdue President Mitch Daniels announced the gift Friday during the President's Council Annual Dinner. He says the Davidsons are "a great part of the reason that Purdue enjoys renowned status on the world stage of universities and what keeps students coming from across the globe."
The gift is part of the Ever True: The Campaign for Purdue University fundraising effort. The school launched the public phase of the campaign, with the goal of raising $2.019 billion by 2019. That year marks the 150th anniversary of Purdue's founding and the 50th anniversary of alumnus Neil Armstrong's walk on the moon.
