Bioimage Analysis Workshop, April, 30–May, 1, 2012, Barcelona, Spain

Bioimage analysis software: is there a future beyond ImageJ?

The workshop will bring together developers and users of imaging software for the analysis of biomedical images. Its purpose is to review the state of the art and to establish requirements for future developments. The focus will be on JAVA-based open-source solutions---in particular, ImageJ---and other open architectures that facilitate the development of plugins and community-driven projects.

Bioimage Analysis Workshop
The program will feature a series of invited talks by software developers and researchers who have significantly contributed to the field. In addition to the presentations, there will be special slots for posters and demos as well as roundtable discussions for drafting a roadmap for future resource developments in the context of Euro Bioimaging. The workshop includes the following topics:

  • Description of novel open-source image-analysis software
  • Solutions for the analysis of biological and biomedical images
  • Issues in parallel implementations, multidimensional data, scripting, large data sets, distributed computating
  • Standardization mechanisms and accreditation of software
  • Benchmarking and testing
  • Web-based resources
