CITEAM Workshop 2026
๐Ÿ“ University of Maryland ยท College Park, MD
๐Ÿ“… Wednesday, May 20 from 8:30 am to 5 pm

Overview

The CITEAM workshop is geared toward cyberinfrastructure (CI) training for the community of scientists and researchers using the new generation of Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) instruments at UMD. The training materials presented during the workshop and the associated training activities will help reduce barriers to the use of the instruments, data, software tools, and computing to help users in key steps critical to their scientific inquiry โ€” from data collection, data analysis, to storing and publishing data โ€” encompassing end-to-end TEM Data Management.

This edition of the workshop will include a keynote talk from Professor Ichiro Takeuchi, and cover foundational materials relevant to the instrument users.

This day-long workshop will be structured around a mix of lectures introducing the materials customized for the instrument users, hands-on sessions where participants will have the opportunity to go through end-to-end examples with the workshop instructors, site visit to the actual instrument, followed by office hours from the instructors to address specific questions and concerns.

Although this workshop is geared towards new users, intermediate and advanced users are also invited to attend, participate in the advanced hands-on sessions, and provide feedback on the materials presented.

Register

The registration fee is $80 and will be collected via UMD-issued invoices. Payment can be made by check or credit card through the UMD Bursar's Office. Please note that registration fees are non-refundable.
