Image analysis book & QuPath jobs, webinar & hackathon
by Sanna Palosaari 24 Apr '22

24 Apr '22

FYI ----- Hi, I'd like to share three announcements - involving two job advertisements, a webinar, a hackathon, and new textbook - all connected to bioimage analysis & open software. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look, and share the information with anyone else you think might be interested. Thanks! Pete 1. New open textbook: Introduction to Bioimage Analysis I recently released a new image analysis textbook at https://bioimagebook.github.io It's not really a normal textbook: it's a free, open, interactive 'executable book' containing text, illustrations, videos, quizzes and live code. It covers not only the main concepts and techniques of image analysis, but also how they are applied in software - particularly ImageJ/Fiji and Python. I wrote the book with biologists in mind, but it's intended for anyone with an interest in the topic - either as a student or a teacher. You can find a brief overview and videos showing it in action here on Twitter<https://twitter.com/petebankhead/status/1516729400137551878?s=20&t=KBYJ5qRm…>. 2. Two open positions (Postdoc / Research Software Engineer) A goal of the book is to facilitate cross-disciplinary research by making image analysis more accessible and understandable for people with different expertise. Another way my group tries to do that is through open algorithms and software. In that regard, there are two new positions to join me in working on QuPath (http://qupath.github.io): * QuPath position 1 - focus on core software, handling huge images, image analysis<https://elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/job/3974> * QuPath position 2 - focus on user experience, data visualization<https://elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/job/4009> Both would be suitable for either a postdoc with strong coding skills or a research software engineer. There's more information on the project here<https://chanzuckerberg.com/eoss/proposals/qupath-boosting-bioimage-analysis…>. I may be a bit biased, but I think that these positions offer a particularly exciting opportunity to apply computational skills in a way that can directly benefit a large number of research projects worldwide. I base this on the fact that, with >200k downloads<https://github.com/qupath/qupath> and >1.2k citations<https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-17204-5>, QuPath is already one of the most widely-used software applications for bioimage analysis. Use is increasing quickly (~2/3 of the citations are since 2021), and there's a very active user community with over 2,000 QuPath discussions<https://forum.image.sc/tag/qupath> on the Scientific Community Image Forum. There's also a growing developer community, with projects like PAQUO: PAthological QUpath Obsession<https://github.com/bayer-science-for-a-better-life/paquo>, WarPy<https://forum.image.sc/t/warpy-registration-of-whole-slide-images-at-cellul…> and QuPath Edu<https://github.com/yli-hallila/qupath-edu-extension> building on QuPath's openness in creative ways. QuPath's future development has recently been awarded funding from CZI (Essential Open Source Software for Science) and the Wellcome Trust (Technology Development Grant) - so whoever joins will be part of a growing team dedicated to image analysis and open science, with the funding and flexibility to work on solving some of the biggest challenges in biological and biomedical image analysis. To get an idea of what QuPath can already do, check out the YouTube channel<http://youtube.com/c/qupath> or follow us on Twitter<https://twitter.com/qupath> - but I hope that together we can make it do even more. 3. QuPath webinar & hackathon Finally: I realise it's a bit late to mention, but I'll be giving two new QuPath webinars on 25 April (to cater for different timezones) * QuPath: Past, Present and Future - 9am (BST)<https://teams.microsoft.com/registration/sAafLmkWiUWHiRCgaTTcYQ,lCxQUFpGhUi…> / 11am (Finland) * QuPath: Past, Present and Future - 6pm (BST)<https://teams.microsoft.com/registration/sAafLmkWiUWHiRCgaTTcYQ,lCxQUFpGhUi…> / 8pm (Finland) Throughout the rest of the week, anyone interested in the programming side of QuPath can join in a hackathon as well. Beyond its graphical interface, QuPath is extensible and scriptable - so the hackathon will be a chance for people who are comfortable writing code to learn how to get even more out of the software. You can find more details about both these events at https://forum.image.sc/t/april-2022-qupath-webinar-hackathon/65779 Peter Bankhead Senior Lecturer p.bankhead(a)ed.ac.uk<mailto:p.bankhead@ed.ac.uk> Institute of Genetics and Cancer University of Edinburgh Western General Hospital, Crewe Road Edinburgh, EH4 2XU The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.

Soluviljelijöiden kokous huhtikuu 2022
by Reetta Hinttala 22 Apr '22

22 Apr '22

Hei, lyhyt yhteenveto tämän viikon kokouksesta. Hyvää viikonloppua, Reetta CRC:n soluviljelijöiden kokous ti 19.4.22 Yhteenveto 1. Uusi nestetyppisäiliö on nyt toimintakunnossa ja sitä voidaan alkaa täyttää. Säiliön yhteyteen perustetaan perinteinen kansio johon merkitään tarkemmin rackien ja boxien sisältö. Sen lisäksi on sähköiseen kansioon S:\KLIIN\CRC\Nestetyppitankit Liquid nitrogen tanks tiedostoon luotu excel-lehti (Locator VI) johon merkitään varaustilanne tutkimusryhmittäin. Ihotaudit siirtää omat soluampullit tankkiin varaten yhden kokonaisen rackin. Tärkeää huomioida, että huone on nyt täysi eikä sinne mahdu enää uutta nestetyppitankkia. Kannattaa siis täyttää tilaa harkiten ja poistaa aika ajoin ampullit joiden säilytys ei ole tarpeellista. 2. 341/342B laboratorioiden eteistilassa oleva fuugi on rikki. Laitetta yritetään korjata parhaillaan ja tarvittaessa tilalle hankitaan uusi. Gyne on tarjonnut väliaikaisesti klinikasta fuugin käyttöömme syksyyn saakka. Tällä hetkellä fuugista puuttuvat 50 ml:n falconeiden adapterit, 15 ml:n putkien fuugaus onnistuu. Kiitos paljon Riikka! 3. Seuraava kokous ti 14.6. klo 9 joko etänä tai CRC:n kahvihuoneessa. CRC Cell Culture Meeting Tue 19.4.22 Summary 1. The new liquid nitrogen tank is now cooled and operational. A folder is placed next to the tank, in which the contents of the racks and boxes will be marked by hand. In addition, an excel sheet has been created in the electronic folder S: \ KLIIN \ CRC \ Liquid nitrogen tanks. Dermatology group transfers their cell ampoules to the tank, reserving one rack. It is important to note that the room is now full and there is no space for another liquid nitrogen tank. It is therefore important to fill the space carefully and remove ampoules from time to time which do not require storage. 2. The centrifuge in the entry room of 341 / 342B laboratories is broken. It is currently under repair, a new one will be purchased if necessary. Gyne has kindly provided us a temporary fuge from their clinic until the Fall. Currently, we lack adapters for 50 ml falcon tubes, but 15 ml tubes can be centrifuged. Thank you very much Riikka! 3. Next meeting Tue 14.6. at 9 a.m. either remotely or in CRC's coffee room. From: cellcrc-bounces(a)lists.oulu.fi <cellcrc-bounces(a)lists.oulu.fi> On Behalf Of Reetta Hinttala Sent: torstai 3. maaliskuuta 2022 13.39 To: cellcrc(a)lists.oulu.fi; 'crc(a)lists.oulu.fi' <crc(a)lists.oulu.fi> Subject: [Cellcrc] Soluviljelijöiden kokous helmikuu 2022 Hei, tässä yhteenveto soluviljelijöiden kokouksesta. t.Reetta CRC:n soluviljelijöiden kokous to 24.2.22 Yhteenveto 1. Uusi nestetyppisäiliö saapunut soluampulleille. Säiliötä täytetään ja jäähdytetään pikkuhiljaa nestetypellä täyttämällä muutaman viikon ajan ennen sen käyttöönottoa. Tarvittaessa tilataan nestetypen lisätäyttö. Säiliön yhteyteen perustetaan kansio johon merkitään tarkemmin rackien ja boxien sisältö. Sen lisäksi on sähköiseen kansioon S:\KLIIN\CRC\Nestetyppitankit Liquid nitrogen tanks tiedostoon luotu uusi excel-lehti (Locator VI) johon merkitään varaustilanne tutkimusryhmittäin. Tärkeää on, että ryhmät saavat solut säilytykseen ja että tilaa jaetaan kokonaisuus huomioon ottaen. Erityisesti huomioidaan ihotautien ryhmän tilantarve koska heillä ei ole säilytystilaa CRC:n aiemmin hankituissa yhteisissä tankeissa. 2. 341B soluviljelyn laminaarin suodatin on vaihdettu ja laminaaria voi jälleen käyttää. Loppuraportti Kojairin tekemästä tarkastuksesta puuttuu vielä. 3. Kokouksessa keskusteltiin tulossa olevasta IV koneen huollosta. Soluviljelyiden laminaarit ovat kaikki toiminnassa tuolloin ma 7.3. ja käyttökatkos koskee ainoastaan CRC:n osalta ilmanvaihtoa kahvihuoneen ja Biocenterin lasiovien välisellä alueella. 4. Anja ottaa vastaan näytteitä mykoplasmatestiin tiistaihin 15.3. saakka. 5. Seuraava kokous ti 19.4. klo 9 joko etänä tai CRC:n kahvihuoneessa. CRC Cell Culture Meeting Tue 19.10.21 Summary 1. A new liquid nitrogen tank has arrived for cell ampoules. The tank is gradually filled and cooled with liquid nitrogen for a few weeks before use. If necessary, extra liquid nitrogen is ordered. A folder is located next to the tank, in which the contents of the racks and boxes will be marked by hand. In addition, an excel sheet has been created in the electronic folder S: \ KLIIN \ CRC \ Liquid nitrogen tanks. It is important that there is enough storage space for researchers who need it and that the space is distributed based on equal principles. Particularly this applies to the dermatology group, who does not have any slots in older LN tanks of CRC. 2. The filter for laminar in 341B has been replaced and the laminar can be used again. The final report of Kojair's inspection is still missing. 3. We discussed the upcoming air conditioning maintenance on Mon 7.3. Cell culture laminars are all operational on that day and the maintenance only applies to ventilation in the area between the coffee room and the glass doors of the Biocenter. 4. Anja will run mycoplasma test in March. You can bring samples to her until Tue 15th of March. 5. Next meeting Tue 19.4. at 9 a.m. either remotely or in CRC's coffee room.
