This is super exciting research! Has there been any progress on creating new micro-ct scans of existing opened and closed Herculaneum scrolls?

Yes, definitely. Our research group and some others have been actively working with and scanning the materials from this collection to advance our understanding and methods. This is focusing on both open fragments and intact, sealed scrolls. Both are helping us work towards ultimately being able to read the sealed scrolls through CT.
