Do you like building novel optical microscopes to answer complex biological questions? How about doing that as part of one of the world’s most unique and vibrant research and education communities, which is incidentally located in a beautiful seaside New England village? 🐙🌊🔬

These workshops are perfect for grad students & postdocs in the Boston area that are either planning or actively conducting microscopy experiments in their research! More info about the workshops, along with the application, here: cite.hms.harvard.edu/education/wo...

A flyer for the Bioimage Analysis Beginnings Bootcamp - blue and white with a picture of cells on the top. It says "Learn core bioimage analysis skills using open-source tools for light microscopy. Open to participants at all skill levels." It also says it will be held a the Broad Institute, 415 Main Street, Cambridge MA USA, on Monday to Friday January 12th-16, 2026, from 9-5pm. Registration is $750 academic, $1250 industry, and applications are open at broad.io/BAB3

Big news! Our week-long #bioimageanalysis bootcamp is BACK! Learn how to think about bioimage analysis like the pros do, learn what corrections you should (and shouldn't!) apply to your images, learn open source tools, and more. Apply NOW at broad.io/BAB3 for our January 2026 course!

Check out our amazing #bobiac2025 cohort! Was a joy to teach this group! Thanks @bioimagingna.bsky.social for generously supporting this 6 week bioimage analysis w/Python course!

Day 1 of #bobiac2025 🐍

The day started strong with @talley.codes speaking about the Python ecosystem and uv. Students then gave short talks about their research (#coolscience). It was then time to code in Python with @sciencedoodles.bsky.social!

‼️3 days left to apply to the Boston Bioimage Analysis Course (BoBiAC)! 💻

Get started w/Python & learn to analyze fluorescence microscopy images — no programming experience required!

Fee waivers available!

🗓️ Apply by June 1st!

Slick t-shirt design for @qiatcshl.bsky.social made by @sciencedoodles.bsky.social featuring fan favorite the bench scope

Congratulations to students @nancypaniagua.bsky.social & Michal for placing 1st & 2nd place in our @ilastik-team.bsky.social pixel classifier challenge to segment with the least amount of annotations! #lazyannotationsftw

The students (totally) loved our TIRF lab! Check out this fluorescein solution sample we used to visualize internal reflection on the scope - 📸 by student Augusto Berrocal

Our image analysis expert instructors, @bethcimini.bsky.social, @damiandn.bsky.social, @florianjug.bsky.social & Hunter Elliott, are in full swing!

It's TIRF time again at QI!!! 🎉 🔬Check out @jencwaters.bsky.social's infamous TIRF demo to understand the principle behind total internal reflection vs refraction! #gonetirfing #criticallyawesome
