*Dear all,*
*
We are pleased to announce the new major release of version SCIPION 2.0
<http://scipion.i2pc.es>. It is freely available for download on Linux here:
http://scipion.i2pc.es/download_form
Key changes for version 2.0 are:
*
Almost all existing EM packages were updated, such as RELION3,
EMAN2.21, Gctf 1.18, SPIDER 25.02, Motioncor2-1.2.1 and others.
*
Model building tools from CCP4, Chimera, Phenix and powerfit have
been added.
*
Several improvements for streaming: multi-GPU jobs distribution,
more protocols supporting batch processing, jobs scheduling, new
XMIPP streaming protocols (movie maxshift, ctf selection, GL2D
classification on GPU etc.)
*
Multiple workflow usability and GUI improvements as well as bug
fixes for several tasks.
**
*
Pluginization: each EM package is now a plugin developed and updated
independently from Scipion core. This is a first step towards making
Scipion even more modular and easy to use and install for both users
and developers. The new repository hosting official plugins is now here:
https://github.com/scipion-em
For your convenience we have developed a Plugin Manager which provides
an easy GUI to manage plugins and associated binaries. We already have
over 30 plugins including several new ones, such as 3DFSC, CryoEF,
Sphire (crYOLO), EMPIAR depositor and others. For more information on
each plugin consult its corresponding repo and/ or developers.
*
For developers and facility managers we now have a slack workspace
where you can easily reach other developers and facility staff to
get a quick feedback: https://scipion.slack.com/. Contact us at
scipion at cnb.csic.es <mailto:scipion at cnb.csic.es>for an invitation.
