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>Bioimage analysis has become a keystone of biological research: the deluge of data produced by increasingly advanced microscopes calls for experts able to guide life scientists in the methods and software to be used to produce quantitative knowledge from this data. Due to the complexity of the data, without such expert guidance, it is very likely that image analysis algorithms may be applied incorrectly, possibly even producing erroneous results. Moreover, the diversity of imaging modalities, analysis algorithms and software solutions is growing so rapidly that even experts are overwhelmed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This advanced course concentrates on teaching cutting-edge concepts and tools for quantitative image analysis, and will seek to upgrade the competencies of future bioimage analysis experts on both theoretical algorithm advancements as well as on practical implementation skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This course is aimed at early-career scientists<strong>&nbsp;as well as staff scientists<\/strong>&nbsp;working in microscopy or image analysis facilities who already have experience in bioimage analysis. Moreover, participants should already provide or show the clear intent of providing bioimage analysis support to other researchers with less or no experience in bioimage analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In selecting participants we look for scientific excellence, immediate application of the methods learned, motivation to disseminate and networking skills. We expect a solid background in bioimage analysis and at least basic programming skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modules\/Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Microscopy image quality control and image restoration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Advanced image segmentation and complex cell phenotyping<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Handling large microscopy images (such as whole slide scans) and big&nbsp;N-dimensional data&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Neural-networks for image restoration, segmentation, and object classification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Co-localisation and spatial statistics<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Train the trainer: how to teach image analysis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Outcomes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants should be able to apply what they have learnt to their own image data as well as to image data of their colleagues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For each module, participants will learn both theoretical and practical aspects of the latest developments in the fields of bio image analysis concepts and tools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After this course, they are expected to be able to confidently operate and interface with a representative selection of open and closed source image analysis software, including Fiji, QuPath, ilastik, morphographX, KNIME, Imaris, and APEER, in a reproducible and shareable manner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, participants will gain new insights about how to set up an image analysis course in their own institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Participant Commitment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The virtual course will start on&nbsp;Monday 14 June with an&nbsp;<strong>onboarding session<\/strong>&nbsp;and access to the pre-recorded lectures&nbsp;and pre-course study materials (exercises, assignments, etc.). It will continue on&nbsp;<strong>Monday 28 June<\/strong>&nbsp;with the regular programme.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The virtual course includes&nbsp;recorded talks, interactive discussion sessions, online practicals, hands-on exercises and networking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full-time attendance is required for the course duration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Selected participants&nbsp;will have access to the recorded talks 2 weeks&nbsp;before the start of the event. Please note that watching the recordings prior&nbsp;to&nbsp;the start of the course is required and will take approximately&nbsp;<strong>5 hours<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Information on the live stream and access to the virtual course platform will be provided shortly before the start of the event.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Access to the recorded talks&nbsp;and the virtual course platform&nbsp;will be available for&nbsp;2 weeks after the&nbsp;end&nbsp;of the event.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"vf-tabs__section\"

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<\/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. Attendance at the event is required in order to be eligible to receive the reimbursement. 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<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 <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 <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 <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>The EMBL eCampus learning platform will be used to collaborate, communicate and network with all of the course participants.
