Presentation
This web page is intended to be an extensive repository of three-dimensional electron microscopy (3DEM) methods. The advantages of having such a repository are
- You know which are the relevant articles in a particular topic, therefore, paper introductions, reviews, etc. are easier to write and you make sure you will cite all the related articles.
- You will be sure that your paper has more chances of being cited.
- You can add whatever information you find relevant to your method, external links, links to other papers, etc.
- You can link your method to a web page providing the corresponding software, so you know people can use your algorithms.
- You can use the Wiki search capabilities to locate relevant articles even if they are not at the topic you are looking at.
- As a community we will "reconstruct" our history.
- You can select the "watch" option above to receive notifications in case of further changes in the Main Page.
Developing image processing methods for 3DEM is not "well-paid" in terms of citations and impact factor. However, it is crucial for the advance of the field. Gathering methodological papers in a portal will help to increase the recognition of the field.
Please:
- Add your articles at the right place (you can add a single article in several topics if it is relevant to all of them). The easiest way to add an article is by editing the corresponding topic in the main page, adding your entry, then save the main page. Click on the red link that appears on your new entry, copy and paste the Wiki following code, add the information of your article
== Citation == == Abstract == == Keywords == == Links == == Related software == == Related methods == == Comments ==
- Maintain the information of each article as complete as possible.
- Sort articles by years and authors.
- Be respectful to other people's work.
