ScanImage & Ephus Users

Unknown macro: {comment}

Be Counted!

If your lab/entity is or will soon be actively using/trying ScanImage and/or Ephus, please respond to the (brief) 2011-2012 USER SURVEY if you haven't already.

We now require a response to this brief, periodic (every year or two) survey from each lab as part of our terms-of-use. We need this accurate head count of the number of labs, rigs, and users of ScanImage and Ephus in order to justify continued long-term funding for these development efforts.

The [2011/2012 ScanImage & Ephus User Survey||https://www.surveymonkey.com/sr.aspx?sm=KkiJUH8V1DN65S2AjMHf_2blpn4SxgIiPxg_2f1lBFqk7hk_3d] is now closed. See the results below. Thanks to all who participated!
Because of the community's strong adoption and support, we are hard at work on the next versions of these tools.

As of 1/28/2013, 180 ScanImage-using labs and 75 Ephus-using labs (total of 197 using either/both) have self-identified via the concluded 2011/2012 user survey, including current and beginning users and those definitely planning to use/try ScanImage/Ephus through 2012.

You can see highlights of the survey below and/or browse the detailed results.

Informal Count

Since 2008, there have been over 300 registrations on the ScanImage/Ephus wiki site.

Informally, we presently count over 100 labs believed to be actively using ScanImage – based on our conversations with users and the community.

We are currently running the 2011-2012 ScanImage/Ephus Usage Survey to get a more formal count of the number of labs, rigs, and users employing ScanImage/Ephus, as we prepare to apply for renewed funding.

Survey Results (12-28-2011)

As of 12/28/2011, 76 ScanImage-using labs and 34 Ephus-using labs have self-identified via the ongoing user survey, including both current users and those definitely planning to use/try ScanImage/Ephus in 2011-2012.
