Learning Bioimage Analysis

Here are some resources to get started.

Image Clinics

Image Clinics are (free) consultations where we look at your data and discuss solutions to your image analysis needs.
Typically we talk for up to an hour and afterwards you will receive a short report.
Image Clinics are meant as a first contact that can later turn into a collaborative project—sometimes we can solve your problem on the spot, but usually, we simply provide you with pointers to software and methods that will enable you to proceed in the right direction.

To request a consultation, please send an email with a few lines about your data, what you hope to do with it, and a link to your lab’s website—we will send you a booking link if relevant.

Preparation Please be ready to give (prepare slides/order thoughts)

• A 2–3 min presentation of your research question
• A 5–7 min presentation of your specific technical question covering what you have tried and what you would like to achieve.

Keep in mind that your interlocutor probably doesn’t have your specialization.
To present your problem: be brief, avoid jargon, and define a clear image analysis goal.

Data Please bring some representative example data, even if not your own.
