Dear Microscopy Community,
"Scientific imaging: acquisition, post-processing (Photoshop, ImageJ,
Bridge, etc.), correcting for outputs and quantization" series of
seminars are being held March 21 - 25, 2011, in Bethesda, Maryland
(Washington D.C. area) at the Hyatt Regency Hotel (One Bethesda Metro
Center) near the NIH campus.
There is room for only 12 participants in the 3-day session, so early
sign up is encouraged!
These seminars will be given by Jerry Sedgewick (author of "Scientific
Imaging with Photoshop: Methods, Measurement and Output") and will focus
primarily on scientific images post-processed in Photoshop, Image J, and
related programs using best methods/practices for image integrity.
Please go to
http://www.imagingandanalysis.com/seminars.html for more
information.
Acquisition and post-processing of scientific images are increasingly
being scrutinized, and so knowledge of best practices in imaging is
becoming more crucial. It is also critical to clearly show visual data
in publication and presentation: learn how to conform image tones to
outputs so that salient features can be seen.
Whether you've used Photoshop and related programs in the past, or you
have limited experience, the combination of an in-depth, hands-on
approach and expert guidance make the seminars appropriate for all but
advanced users.
Overview
Varying Length seminars will be given to fit time restrictions by
participants. Here is a more detailed outline for the seminars:
http://www.imagingandanalysis.com/course.html. Here is the shortened
version:
The 3-Day Seminar is an energetic hands on lecture and practice session.
Take this seminar to really implant acquisition, post-processing,
outputting and quantization techniques.
The 1-Day Seminar is a lively lecture presenting all the acquisition,
post-processing and outputting techniques practiced in the 3-Day seminar.
A second 1-Day seminar is hands-on quantization: learn colocalization,
segmenting (separating regions of interest from surrounding features),
optical intensity/density measurement methods, and means for keeping a
single threshold for multiple images when there are sample to sample
differences.
The 2-hour seminars include add-on software for Photoshop to speed up
post-processing, ensure that the original is not saved over, include a
record of steps, and create a means to apply the same changes to other
images from the same microscopy session.
