The Crick: BioImaging Symposium October 20

The Crick BioImage Analysis Symposium (CBIAS) aims to showcase image analysis techniques to biomedical researchers and to demonstrate how such approaches can help them advance their research.

The symposium will bring together life scientists and leading developers of bioimage analysis methods to illustrate how such approaches can answer defined biological questions.

We're still hoping to host this symposium, but registration is not yet open. If you have any questions in the meantime, please get in touch with the symposium organisers.

The ability to routinely acquire large, multi-dimensional datasets with modern microscopy techniques is revolutionising biomedical research. In order to fully realise the benefits of such imaging technologies, automated analysis pipelines are needed, but many life scientists lack the necessary expertise to design and execute such analyses.

The key objectives of the symposium are:

Inform biomedical researchers of the possibilities that image analysis can deliver for their research

Establish links between life science researchers and image analysis experts

Foster the development of an image analysis network, with the Crick as its central hub
