Bin-BW ImageJ workshop: Konstanz May, 2019

January 15th and 16th, 2019

As part of the initiative Bin-BW (Bioimage-Net Baden-Württemberg) the Bioimaging Center of the University of Konstanz offers workshops in image analysis based on the open-source software ImageJ.

The two-day introductory workshop teaches the basics of digital image processing and analysis for biological / biomedical studies. The goal of the workshop is that participants acquire basic knowledge and technique for measurements using image data.

Participation is most fruitful for learners who are conducting biological or medical research and are already using or are planning to use (light) microscopy for quantification purposes. If you already have generated data that poses a challenge of general interest, it is possible to integrate this data into the workshop agenda.

Participants should bring their own laptops. Please contact us in case this is not possible for you. Instructions on how to properly install and configure ImageJ will be provided before the workshop.

The Bin-BW ImageJ workshop will take place at the University of Konstanz on 15th and 16th of May, 2019 at room H308. A detailed agenda is listed in the table below.
