Technology

The Elemental Microscopy journal was developed by the Curvenote team and built with open source MyST Markdown components.

Rowan Cockett is the CEO and co-founder of Curvenote, which is an interactive, online writing and publishing platform for science, with dedicated integrations to Jupyter. Rowan is a core developer of MyST Markdown and has a Ph.D. in computational geophysics from the University of British Columbia (UBC) where he worked on large-scale simulation and parameter estimation package for geophysical processes (electromagnetics, fluid-flow, gravity, etc.).

The larger Curvenote team including Steve Purves, Franklin Koch and Mike Morrison have been in involved in the design and development of Elemental Microscopy.


Open Source Technologies

This journal leverages the vast ecosystem of open source software, especially Python, NumPy, SciPy, IPyWidgets, Jupyter, JupyterBook, and MyST Markdown.
