Bioimage Analysis: A Call for Standards and Community Accountability

Posted by Haydee Hernández, on 20 November 2024

Achieving true reproducibility in bioimage analysis is a milestone that may seem far away, but it is a goal to which we must aspire. The current reality is that many published papers lack the necessary documentation, and full disclosure of the steps they followed to obtain results, necessary to reproduce their methodologies accurately. This gap

FocalPlane features... reproducibility in imaging

Posted by FocalPlane, on 23 September 2024

Our next FocalPlane features… webinar is on reproducibility with talks from Helena Jambor and Kota Miura. Helena's talk will cover the community checklists for publishing images, which were developed by QUAREP-LiMi and published at the end of 2023, as she tells us 'How not to lie with image data'. Kota's talk will focus on bioimage analysis and

Interview with Joel Lüthi and Virginie Uhlmann

Posted by Helen Zenner, on 12 June 2024

At the end of 2023, the BioVisionCenter, a new hub for bioimage analysis, was launched with a kick-off symposium in Zurich. We caught up with Joel Lüthi, Head of Research and Development, and Virginie Uhlmann, the center Director, to find out more about the BioVisionCenter, how they each got into bioimage analysis and their advice

An interview with Estibaliz Gómez de Mariscal

Posted by Helen Zenner, on 27 February 2024

At the end of 2023, DL4MicEverywhere was released. The platform aims to make deep learning methods in bioimage analysis more accessible and more reproducible. We caught up with Estibaliz Gómez de Mariscal (Esti), one of the co-leads of the project, to find out more about the platform, and to chat about Esti’s career so far

AI4Life recently participated in the 5th NEUBIAS Conference in Porto, Portugal, a two-part event comprising the Defragmentation Training School and the Open Symposium. This conference brought together experts and enthusiasts in the field of BioImage Analysis (BIA) to explore cutting-edge techniques and advancements in the integration of cloud computing. Under the umbrella of AI4Life, there

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
