Objective

The Computer Optimized Microscopy Course is directed to researchers (microscopy facility stuff members, pre and post-docs, PIs, etc.) who work with digital images obtained by a range of optical microscopy techniques. The course provides a series of mixed theoretical and practical sessions aimed to show the image processing workflow needed to extract quantitative information over different basic and advanced microscopy techniques. From beginning to end, a first general view of image processing basics will be followed by a more detailed focusing on specific applications.

Methodology

The open source ImageJ / Fiji software will be used as a main tool for the course. For some specific applications, other open source and commercial softwares will be also utilized, thus providing a wider range of solutions to specific image processing problems.

General Subjects:
      Parameters to optimize image acquisition
      Properties of the digital images
      Image restoration: filters
      Image restoration: deconvolution
      Segmentation
      Automation of the process: macro programming

Specific applications:
      Colocalization of molecules
      Cell tracking
      FRET and FRAP analysis
      High content screening
      3D reconstruction
      Machine learning

Language of the course:

English.

Dates

June, 30th - July, 3rd , 2015

Fee

Fee: 250€.
