T he SuperSTEM project began in 1997 when Prof. Mick Brown presented a now seminal paper presented at the 1997 Electron Microscopy and Analysis Group (EMAG) conference in Cambridge. Prof. Brown urged the UK scientific community to pool resources in a national microscopy centre that would offer access to an emerging new technological development called aberration correction, which promised to “put a synchrotron in a microscope”.
To realise this vision he teamed up with Peter Goodhew and Chris Kiely from the University of Liverpool , Rik Brydson at the University of Leeds , Alan Craven at the University of Glasgow and Andrew Bleloch from Cambridge to bid for funding for a "UK SuperSTEM National Facility", which was later to become the EPSRC National Research Facility (NRF) for Advanced Electron Microscopy.
SuperSTEM is the EPSRC National Research Facility for Advanced Electron Microscopy. We support a wide variety of multi-disciplinary research by providing access to:
