Happy that ShapeEmbed has been accepted at @NeurIPSConf🎉 SE is a self-supervised framework to encode 2D contours from microscopy & natural images into a latent representation invariant to translation, scaling, rotation, reflection & point indexing (1/N)📄 arxiv.org/pdf/2507.01009

A huge thank you 💙 to my supervisor Virginie Uhlmann, my co-advisor Alexandre Krull and my colleague Craig Russell who shared feedback and ideas. And to the community already using ShapeEmbed — it’s inspiring to see it applied in different biological contexts! (N/N)

Why is ShapeEmbed useful in your research? It can extract shape descriptors to distinguish cell phenotypes and reveal drug-condition induced changes through clustering and latent-space exploration, offering a powerful tool for biological shape analysis. (5/N)

Another year, another #BIC Workshop! This year at #ICCV 2025 in Honolulu, 🌺 🏄‍♀️ 🍹 🌼 Check it here: bioimagecomputing.com Submission deadline: July 4th Hey, you have a month left to submit your work!!! 👍

After a very successful BIC in Milan and before that in Paris, it's going to Hawaii! Submit a paper by July 4th, join us at #ICCV2025 !

It's a misty morning here in Cambridge.

Today at the @emblebi seminars we hosted @sagzehn who talked about self-supervised learning and generative AI for image restoration. It was an absolute blast! Big thanks for sharing your cool work with us! 👩🏻‍💻👨🏻‍💻🔬🎤 #bioimageanalysis #statisticalearning

Do you want to apply deep learning-based methods to your own data and image analysis problems? Then #EMBLDeepLearning is for you! 📣 Apply by 25 November 2024 📣 ➡️ s.embl.org/mac25-01 🗓️ 17 – 21 February 2025 📍 EMBL Heidelberg 🔹 Learning outcomes - Understand the fundamentals of applying deep learning to image analysis in microscopy - Learn where the state-of-the-art of the field stands for the most important image analysis problems - Advise users in strategies to obtain ground truth - Select and train a neural network on a bioimage analysis task - Devise a validation strategy for the results Prerequisites for this workshop are programming experience in Python, including solid knowledge of operations with images, and first experience of applying deep learning algorithms. #2Dsegmentation #3Dsegmentation #tracking #generativemodels

Missing in that list: Ada Lovelace, Sophie Germain or Katherine Johnson and even more amazing contemporary such as Maryam Mirzakhani

@anirbanray_ @peterpark828 @ashesh0 What an amazing crowd! It was a pleasure to see (and meet) all you 🙂

That’s the end of #I2K2024. Grateful to learn so much from it and to reinforce the old friendships over great food 😊🙏

It's great to be at #I2K2024 #i2k and see (almost) everyone in bioimage analysis. If you're interested in OME-Zarrs or what we're doing with Fractal, stop by my poster today! :)

If you didn't yet have enough good reasons to share your bioimage data, Matthew (@BioimageA), Josh (@notjustmoore), Erin (@tuesdaystitches), Assaf (@AssafZaritsky) and I are here with squirrel drawings to convince you that you should do it: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

@florianjug and Anna Kreshuk (@ilastik_team) now give an overview of all the accomplishments of the project in the past 2 years, looking forward to hearing more in the demos and updates from the project partners!

We are looking for another exciting Group Leader to join the @EMBLBarcelona family. We cover all things multicellular: from organs to organoids, 3D tissues to functional in vitro vasculature, from disease models to mathematical models… #research" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">embl.org/sites/barcelon…

🌿 Join us at #COP16Colombia for panel debates with world-leading experts in biodiversity monitoring & modelling. 📅 22 Oct 2024, 14:00-18:00 GMT-5 📍GREAT Casa Británica, Cali Plus explore the UKCEH AI-powered AMI system! 🔗 Register: …role-in-biodiversity.eventbrite.co.uk #PeaceWithNature

Thrilled to head back to @embl Heidelberg as a trainer on #DeepLearning for #bioimageanalysis! Can’t wait to explore cutting-edge techniques and discuss with all the amazing colleagues there! 🔬👩🏻‍💻 You still have a month to apply 🤩#EMBLDeepLearning

I am going to speak in Heidelberg in February on Generative models for image restoration. Exciting
