Happy Expansion Microscopy Day at Quantitative Imaging @qiatcshl.bsky.social

Our latest preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1..., describes Willi Stepp’s project to make smart microscopy even gentler by doing event detection in phase contrast. We developed neural networks to detect mito-LD and mito-lysosome contacts, as well as mitochondrial pre-fission constrictions.

Light sheet baby!! QI2025

Congratulations to students Jana & Michal for winning the Stayin' Alive challenge: acquiring a live cell time lapse with minimal photodamage! #stayinalive

Celebrating the last analysis lab at @qiatcshl.bsky.social in style. Friday night disco music (🤮) and bioimage analysis (😃)

Our first prize winners for their confocal data presentation: 'Pinhole Pros' Federico & Naly!

Congratulations to students @nancypaniagua.bsky.social & Michal for placing 1st & 2nd place in our @ilastik-team.bsky.social pixel classifier challenge to segment with the least amount of annotations! #lazyannotationsftw

The students (totally) loved our TIRF lab! Check out this fluorescein solution sample we used to visualize internal reflection on the scope - 📸 by student Augusto Berrocal

Week 2! 🔬🖥️📊

Our image analysis expert instructors, @bethcimini.bsky.social, @damiandn.bsky.social, @florianjug.bsky.social & Hunter Elliott, are in full swing!

It's TIRF time again at QI!!! 🎉 🔬Check out @jencwaters.bsky.social's infamous TIRF demo to understand the principle behind total internal reflection vs refraction! #gonetirfing #criticallyawesome

Our openSPIM is officially up and running to image the latest catch of the day! Fueled by pymmcore-plus & pymmcore-gui! 💪⚡🔬 pymmcore-plus.github.io/pymmcore-plus/ github.com/pymmcore-plu...

Another wonderful @sciencedoodles.bsky.social creation!

After learning about PSFs, our students are excited about the best microscopy model system: beads! Thanks @leicamicrosystems.bsky.social, @nikonmicro.bsky.social, & ASI for supporting our course! #fluorescentbeads #TheBeadles
