OME

The Open Microscopy Environment (OME) is an open-source software project that develops tools that enable access, analysis, visualization, sharing and publication of biological image data. OME supports more than 150 image data formats across many imaging modalities including fluorescence microscopy, high-content screening, whole-slide imaging and biomedical imaging.

OMERO, a software developed by OME, is an open source, enterprise software platform for image data management and analysis. OMERO is used in 1000s of institutions worldwide managing, sharing, analysing and publishing imaging datasets.

This workshop will cover all of the main functions of OMERO. We will explain the import to OMERO and then demonstrate  organisation, viewing, searching, annotation and publishing of images using OMERO. After we cover the basics of OMERO, we will shortly explain the principles of how 3rd party image analysis packages work with OMERO. This will enable the participants to understand the manual data processing and automated processing workflows using a range of open source applications running alongside OMERO, such as ImageJ/Fiji or CellPose.

This workshop is designed for researchers at all levels who work with data from digital microscopes or other imaging systems. The workshop includes a presentation and hands-on session. Prior knowledge in microscopy, scripting and data analysis is not required.

Bringing your own laptop is strongly encouraged, but it is also possible to follow the workshop as a demonstration only.

Any student / researcher dealing with scientific images is more than welcome to join this workshop.
