Contents and Objectives
Microscopy is a main source of knowledge for the discovery of complex interactions between biological agents, which are used in modern medical research for the development of new diagnostics and therapeutics. In recent years automated image processing techniques have gained in importance for the understanding of microscopic data, permitting to overcome the time bottleneck due to the the size of the data and the complexity of the interactions.
In this seminar, students will be exposed to recent advances in microscopy image acquisition, processing and analysis. Students will learn about:
- different microscopy imaging modalities, such as bright-field, confocal, dark-field, digital, electron, fluorescence, phase contrast and X-ray.
- image analysis methods for detection, classification, segmentation and registration of diverse observed entities, e.g. tissues, cells, molecules, proteins, among others.
Requirements
The seminar consists of a preliminary meeting, an introductory meeting and seminar sessions. Each of the sessions will consist of ~3 student presentations. All seminar participants are expected to be present at every session and to actively participate in the discussion.
Each student is asked to select one topic from a list. In order to successfully complete the seminar, participants have to fullfill these requirements:
- Presentation: The selected paper is presented to the other participants (20 minutes presentation 10 minutes questions). Use the CAMP templates for PowerPoint CAMPmaster.pot, or Latex: CAMP-latex-template.zip.
- Written Handout: A document of maximum 8 pages is written and submitted one week after the presentation. Please download and use the llncs2e.zip Latex template. The handout must include all references used and must be written completely in your own words. Copy and paste will not be tolerated. The handout has to be written in English.
- Attendance: Participants have to participate actively in all seminar sessions. Each presentation is followed by a discussion and everyone is encouraged to actively participate.
Schedule
The seminar consists of a preliminary meeting, an introductory meeting and seminar sessions. Each of the sessions will consist of several student presentations. All seminar participants are expected to be present at every session and to actively participate in the discussion.

Some further hints for working with references:
- JabRef is a Java program for comfortable working with Bibtex literature databases. Handy feature: if you know the PubMed ID for an article, JabRef can import data from there (via "Web Search/Medline").
- Mendeley is a cross-platform program for organising your references.
If you find useful resources that are not already listed here, please tell us, so we can add them for others. Thanks.
