Better ML for cryo-ET starts with better benchmarks.

We built a phantom cryo-ET dataset (~500 tomograms) + hosted a Kaggle challenge.

The result: community models beat expert tools.

If you’ve ever wondered how we get high resolution images of incredibly tiny things, check out our latest video with @em-stp.bsky.social

They discuss how electron microscopes use beams of electrons to see things that light microscopes can’t.
