Abstract
Abstract How do you give 1150 undergraduates in an introductory cell biology course (Biology 200) access to electron microscopes? Students often ask if they can see the electron microscopes. They often ask if they will have an opportunity to learn EM. As part of the course material, students are expected to recognize the images produced by different EM techniques, know the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques and interpret 2-dimensional micrographs in 3 dimensions. This is akin to teaching the theory of baking bread without ever smelling it in the oven. A pilot project was designed to address getting round the impossibility of bringing 1150+ students into the BioImaging Facility. This initiative gave selected undergraduates a hands-on experience of SEM in the BioImaging Facility and allowed the rest of their classmates to share that experience.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
