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.
Informal Count
Since 2008, there have been over 300 registrations on the ScanImage/Ephus wiki site.
Based on our informal discussions with users in the community, we presently count over 100 labs known to be actively using ScanImage/Ephus – over 80 for ScanImage and over 20 for Ephus.
We are currently running the 2011-2012 ScanImage/Ephus Usage Survey to get a more formal count, as we prepare to apply for renewed funding.
