New preprint from the lab: "High-resolution cryo-EM using beam-image shift at 200 keV." Take home message: even with a pretty poorly aligned #cryoEM instrument, you can overcome these aberrations computationally with #RELION (1/n) biorxiv.org/content/10.110… This came from me asking many people: what is the limit for using beam-image shift to collect data at 200 keV? Everyone said it should be worse at 200 keV than 300 keV but we were surprised no one had benchmarked this yet
