How to… Publish Images blog series

Posted by FocalPlane, on 27 September 2023

by Helena Jambor In biology, images document appearances or structures of animals, issues, or cells, and increasingly are a source of quantitative insights of biological processes. Many papers are published every single day with images (Lee, 2018).Not all of these images are truthful or insightful. Some images are manipulated to mislead audiences (Bik et al.,

Sharing research data with Zenodo

Posted by Robert Haase, on 15 February 2023

TL;DR: Sharing data open access is good scientific practice. If data is shared via online portals such as https://zenodo.org, we can implement best practices for sharing, licensing, reusing and citing research data. In this blog post I guide through the minimal procedures that are necessary to share a dataset publicly following the FAIR principles; to

EMBL Imaging Centre: Enabling imaging across scales

Posted by Virginia Pierini, on 17 June 2022

With its first symposium, the EMBL Imaging Centre introduced its services, aims, and missions to the scientific community, celebrated advancements in imaging, and provided a sneak-peek into the cutting-edge technologies and advanced training it will make accessible to researchers all over the world.

The FocalPlane Network: a global directory of microscopists

Posted by FocalPlane, on 14 March 2022

We are excited to announce the launch of the FocalPlane Network, an international directory of researchers with microscopy expertise including developers, imaging scientists, biologists and bioimage analysts. The idea of creating a microscopy database where people could identify researchers with a specific microscopy expertise, diversity, etc. was first discussed in a meeting with our Scientific

‘Open access to imaging technologies’ - an interview with Euro-BioImaging

Posted by FocalPlane, on 6 August 2021

If you read the blog series ‘Technology Highlights by Euro-BioImaging’, you probably already know Johanna Bischof. She is the Scientific Project Manager at Euro-BioImaging and the person behind the blog series. Her interesting interviews have allowed us to learn more about the Euro-BioImaging nodes and different microscopy techniques such as Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy and
