Workshop on BioImage Analysis for High Content Screening

July 14-17, 2020
i3S - Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde da Universidade do Porto

High Content Screening generates massive amounts of image-based data in the biosciences field. Images contain diverse and valuable quantifiable data, however, many researchers lack the knowledge to extract those data in a practical, fast and repetitive way. Fundamentally practical, in this modular course, participants will get acquainted with several open-source image analysis software (ImageJ/Fiji, ilastik, CellProfiler, CellProfiler Analyst, Cytoscape and IDEAS®) designed to deal with large amounts of images. Experimental data will be used as datasets for image segmentation and quantification.
This course is organized in modules. Therefore, participants are free to choose the image analysis tools more convenient to their own work.
