3D Quantitative Visualization of Fluorescently Labeled Cells

October 1, 2019 - 8:30 am - 7:00 pm

3D Quantitative Visualization of Fluorescently Labeled Cells

The visual analysis, assembly, and communication of molecule-scale events has benefited greatly from an explosion of available tools and data that has been provided and evolved by the structural biology community over the past 40 years. Compared to molecular visualization, however, the data, tools, and techniques available for cell-scale visualization remain in a relative infancy.

This workshop is intended for biologists who want to learn ways to access, view, and interrogate 3D fluorescence microscopy data. It will cover several of the specific protocols and tools used and developed at the Allen Institute for Cell Science. Many of the workshop sessions will be based on data that is publicly available on allencell.org, and the methods can be applied to any 3D fluorescence microscopy data.

Join us for a hands-on workshop to learn about and experiment with tools for whole-cell quantitative visualization. Members of the Allen Institute for Cell Science team will teach you how to perform many of the 3D visualization, analysis, and online presentation techniques used at the institute for the quantitative visualization of fluorescently labeled cells. As a group, we will further discuss alternative tools and outstanding needs for future development that we share as a community.

Due to the hands-on nature of this workshop and focused, small group discussions, we will limit the number of participants to less than 30. We encourage trainees and bench scientists interested in 3D visual analysis to apply.  We are eager to host a diverse audience at this workshop and will be providing travel awards to a few attendees based on scientific area of interest and financial need.

This workshop will be held in conjunction with the 2019 BioImage Informatics conference, October 2-4, at the Allen Institute. Conference registration and abstract submission is separate from the workshop application.

Applications are due by Friday, July 26, 2019. There is a $50 fee to apply to attend, which will be refunded if your application is not approved for the workshop.
