Abstract
Computational microscopy is transforming the quantitative characterization of advanced materials and biological systems, shifting the primary bottleneck from hardware limitations to computational challenges. This workshop will highlight emerging computational methodologies for next-generation X-ray and electron microscopy, with a strong emphasis on scalable and robust algorithms that integrate seamlessly into scientific and industrial workflows. By identifying open challenges and incorporating industry perspectives, the workshop seeks to advance quantitative, high-dimensional imaging techniques that directly drive technological innovation and scientific discovery.
