Zurich Winter School – Practical Course in Advanced Microscopy
This advanced microscopy course is intended for PhD students and post-graduates with prior experience in microscopy. The goal of the course is to teach and train fundamental knowledge and skills in a specific microscopic technique. Students will be able to apply this technique to their own present and future projects. Practical work consists of six different modules covering a specific topic each (please see description below). Each practical module lasts throughout the whole course. Students will participate in one module…

PRINCIPLES AND APPLICATIONS OF FLUORESCENCE MICROSCOPY
The use of fluorescence microscopy (wide field, confocal, multiphoton, and now superresolution) in combination with genetically encoded fluorescence probes comprise a powerful set of scientific tools to study live cells. However, surprising little practical and theoretical training in such methods exists within standard curricula, particular at the early stage of training (Masters or Doctorate level). This course offers to cover basic optics principles necessary to understand the origin of microscope resolution and design. Participants will get hands-on experience implementing simple optical configurations…

Online Image analysis courses – NEUBIAS Academy
NEUBIAS Academy is a new initiative, aimed to provide sustainable material and activities focused on Training in Bioimage Analysis. NEUBIAS Academy capitalizes on the success of 15 Training Schools (2016-2020) that have supported over 400 trainees (Early Career Scientists, Facility Staff and Bioimage Analysts), but could not satisfy the high and increasing demand (almost 1000 applicants). A team of about 20 members will interact with a larger pool of hundreds of trainers, analysts and developers to bring knowledge and bleeding-edge updates to the community.

CFIM Image Processing PhD course 2020
In this course we will initially use Fiji to illustrate fundamental image analysis concepts, then expand to introduce other software packages such as cell profiler and Ilastik. The students will learn what a digital image is, how and when to perform basic image processing tasks and how to combine such tasks to perform advanced image processing and segmentation, automated pixel classification and, 2D and 3D measurements. Furthermore, the student will learn basic Macro programming and how to automate analysis of many…
