Last call! This is a great opportunity for those interested in learning and applying SOTA ML/DL models to microscopy data with the leading experts in the field.
Personally super excited to be a lead TA along with the amazing @afoix.bsky.social and @edhirata.bsky.social!
Hope to see you there :)

WaveOrder is a powerful new #microscopy tool from Biohub that helps researchers reconstruct messy microscope data into clean, quantitative maps. Itβs grounded in physics & itβs already changing how we see biology.

Weβve upgraded ShapeEmbed π ShapeEmbedLite decodes latent codes via an MLP to guarantee valid EDMs, making it lighter and ideal for small microscopy datasets or limited compute. Hear more at my BIC workshop talk or poster at #ICCV2025! Try it out at github.com/uhlmanngroup...

Excited to share an update on #DynaCLRβa self-supervised method to learn dynamic cell & organelle embeddings from time-lapse microscopy using contrastive learning.
DynaCLR combines single-cell tracking & time-aware sampling for robust representations.

Grateful to our incredible collaborators! This work wouldnβt have been possible without the deep interdisciplinary collaboration across CZ Biohub teams.
These fast iterations and bold ideas are only possible because of you! π #CZBiohub @czbiohub.bsky.social

We provide a:
- PyTorch code for training & inference: github.com/mehta-lab/Vi...
- A GUI to visualize trajectories in real and embedding space
- Tools for efficient human-in-the-loop annotation
DynaCLRβs temporally consistent embeddings enable in silico synchronization of asynchronous dynamics like infection & mitosis, along with organelle responses, enabling pseudotime estimation across multiple imaging channels. 5/β³
We introduce a strategy to accelerate label-free cell state analysis: cross-modal knowledge distillation transfers labels from easy-to-annotate fluorescence sensors to unlabeled phase images, unlocking multi-state measurements from label-free data. 4/π§βπ«
DynaCLR embeddings enable efficient classification of cell states, including mitosis and viral infection, with a few thousand point annotations of cell state, which speeds up measurement of complex cell state dynamics. 3/π¦
DynaCLR learns embeddings from 3D multi-channel movies and enables:
1) cell state classification
2) fluorescence-to-label-free label transfer
3) alignment of dynamics.
This update adds knowledge distillation and temporal alignment for even richer analysis. 2/π¬
