We are delighted to announce that the course is going virtual and invite you to join us online.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The advent of deep learning has brought a revolution in the field of computer vision, including most tasks and research questions concerned with microscopy image analysis. Neural networks have been successfully used for image restoration, classification and segmentation, for the detection of objects and characterisation of their morphology, for high-throughput imaging and large-scale processing in 3D. Despite these advances, training and deployment of such neural networks remains difficult for practitioners of image analysis. The aim of our course is to close this gap and teach the participants &#8211; in the most hands-on way possible &#8211; to apply deep learning-based methods to their own data and image analysis problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a blended learning course. We will begin with 3 pre-course sessions (on Friday 18 Dec 2020, Friday 15 January 2021 and Friday 29 January 2021) which will bring everyone to a good starting position for a week-long intensive virtual course in February 2021. The 3 pre-course sessions will have associated homework. The week-long course in February 2021 will include a few talks, but will mostly be devoted to hands-on work on real data, in small groups of 3-4 participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This course is aimed at both core facility staff and research scientists.&nbsp;<br><br>Prerequisites for this workshop are programming skills in Python and ideally Tensorflow, Keras or Pytorch as well as basic knowledge of machine learning theory.&nbsp;Participants should provide an outline of one image analysis task they would like to work on during the course.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ideally, you will provide annotated images for network training during the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Outcomes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After this course you should be able to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Understand the fundamentals of machine learning methods suitable for image analysis&nbsp;<\/li><li>Advise users\/colleagues in strategies to obtain ground truth<\/li><li>Train and use a CNN for a bioimage analysis task studied in the course&nbsp;<\/li><li>Perform simple quality control on the results<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"vf-tabs__section\" id=\"vf-tabs__section-311a4dae-4712-45c4-bb7c-83f569003b70\"><h2>Speakers and Trainers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"vf-grid |

The registration fee waiver covers the registration sum that you have paid to attend the meeting. Conference participants are not required to pre-pay the registration fee to be selected for a fee waiver for a virtual meeting. If you have already paid the registration fee and are awarded a fee waiver, it will be reimbursed after the meeting. Course participants are required to pay the course fee in advance, which will then be reimbursed after the recipient has attended the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Childcare Grants&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For participants and speakers with childcare responsibilities there is the possibility to apply for a grant,&nbsp;provided by the EMBL Advanced Training Centre Corporate Partnership Programme and EMBO, to offset childcare costs incurred when participating at a virtual event. Eligible costs include fees for a babysitter or childcare facility or travel costs for a care giver. Please note that priority will be given to early stage researchers. Costs will be reimbursed after the meeting only once a reimbursement form and original receipts have been received. In order to apply for this grant, you must be registered by the abstract submission deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds Travel Grant<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Applies to selected courses only. Availability will be indicated during the abstract or motivation letter submission process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This grant covers costs related to your attendance to the course (registration, travel and accommodation costs). The grant is restricted to PhD students and postdocs who conduct basic biomedical research.<br>Whether you are eligible to apply for a travel grant,&nbsp;depends on when you received your university entrance qualification (e.g. Abitur, A-Levels, High School Diploma, Final State Examination):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; for PhD and MD students, as well as graduates, the university entrance qualification must not have been obtained more than 11 years ago at the time of the envisaged course<br>&#8211; for postdocs, the university entrance qualification must not have been obtained more than 13 years ago at the time of the envisaged course<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Application<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications for financial assistance can be submitted via the submission portal* (for the submission of abstracts for conferences or the submission of motivation letters for courses) by completing the Financial Assistance Application Section (underneath the section for entering abstract\/motivation letter information). The link to the portal can be found in the registration confirmation email that you will receive after registering for the conference or course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For conferences, if you are not submitting an abstract, you can still apply for financial assistance in the submission portal by following the instructions&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.de\/training\/events\/info_participants\/fellowships\/FA_instructions.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>. Note that priority will be given to those submitting an abstract to present at the conference. In your application you will be asked to answer questions regarding your motivation for applying, and, for registration fee waivers, the reasons why your lab cannot fund your attendance and how your attendance will make a difference to your career. Application for financial support will not affect the outcome of your registration application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*For some events, applications for Childcare Grants will still be done by email. Information about the grant will be sent out shortly after the abstract\/motivation letter deadline. Please contact the event Conference Officer if you have any questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Selection<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The scientific organisers will select the recipients of registration fee waivers during the abstract selection process for conferences and the participant selection process for courses.&nbsp;Results will be announced approximately 3 &#8211; 4 weeks before the event start date.&nbsp;Selection results do not impact your admission to the meeting. Registration fee waiver selection is based on your current work or study location, your motivation for applying, the reasons for needing financial support and the impact this event will have on your career. Childcare grants are allocated based on career stage, with priority given to early stage researchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Further details<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A list of external funding opportunities can be found&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.de\/training\/events\/info_participants\/fellowships\/external_funding_sources\/index.html\">here<\/a>, and information on attending a conference as an event reporter&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.de\/training\/events\/info_participants\/eventreporter\/index.php\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For further information about financial assistance please refer to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.de\/training\/events\/info_participants\/faqs\/faqs_participants\/index.html#FAQ_PA_trav1\">FAQ page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details  class=\"vf-details\" id=\"\"  >\n<summary class=\"vf-details--summary\">\nTechnical Requirements<\/summary>\n<div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<p>Below you will find the software and technical requirements for this course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants are asked to use a laptop with a Mac, Linux, or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc.) and to install a few specific software packages.
