Reviewers: if you are assigned a manuscript that is well written and data are clear, can we agree to say no changes needed? It seems many suggest unnecessary changes just to feel they are a good reviewer. This is damaging to students, postdocs and PIs 😡 @AcademicChatter
@nevermore_78@haesleinhuepf@FijiSc I work on computational biology. I write code on a daily basis, but only scripts in Matlab and Python. Thanks again for your help :)
@SysVirology@haesleinhuepf@FijiSc Writing a plugin for Fiji is generally quite more involved than writing a macro. At least, it definitely has a higher activation barrier. To just start, I'd stick with macros. What's your background in programming? Take a look at this post and whole topic: forum.image.sc/t/where-to-sta…
Can someone please point me in the right direction to find resources (YouTube channels, webpages, etc) to learn how to code plugins and scripts for #Fiji, #imagej, micro-manager. #microscopy
@haesleinhuepf@nevermore_78@FijiSc I found this tutorial on fiji's youtube channel, it is quite old. But they explain how to code and then integrate a plugin into fiji. I am not sure how different it is in comparison with macros? youtube.com/watch?v=YIWpoB…
@HuyVo47169906 Do you think that in the future we will have real virtual conferences with virtual reality headset, avatars, virtual conference rooms, and virtual exhibition rooms for the companies?
Seeking more educators! Animation lab postdoc @Na_y_ak has been working on visualizations of metabolic flux. If you're teaching these concepts, we'd love your your help developing these animations and educational modules (which will be freely shared online).
All colleagues out there reviewing papers. Please write your reviews in a constructive way. Lots of "!!!" with extremely harsh/offensive words really shouldn't be the way to review. Think of the PhD students dealing with it and it might be their 1st ever paper #AcademicChatter
Excited 2 announce our new computational microbiome analysis framework: Probabilistic Ranking Of Microbiomes Plus Taxa Selection (PROMPTS) with J Thompson (@CSUEngineering), N Lubbers, M Kroeger, R Devan & J Dunbar (@LosAlamosNatLab).

Your microscope does not work without running a code? Then consider telling us how it works altogether: Submissions are open for the Special Issue on "Computational Microscopy". Read more at journals.elsevier.com/optics-communi…
Five years ago today, I moved to the US to pursue an academic career and explore new research directions. Today, I'm overwhelmed by deep anxiety about the upcoming Executive Order suspending work visas including H-1B, which I've applied for. Speechless.
So, there is a pregnant student in my school this semester, which should be no-one's business, only she might give birth before the end of term so she's been asking profs if she can submit the final papers a couple of weeks earlier
