Sir Ernst Chain Annual Lecture 25 March 2026 – Science as Revolution YouTube video by Imperial College London

Wonderful to host Sir Paul Nurse giving a public lecture on Science As Revolution at Imperial College London. The whole talk is online: www.youtube.com/live/IRPox7F...

It is always fun to explore the wonders of this world of ours through the eyes of the little ones.

But my heart goes out to the adults that bring them to these events. To those that already know all the answers and to those that indulge in the joy or learning something new 🌱

For British Science Week, @uomscieng.bsky.social brought everything from dinosaur bones to robots to all the curious minds at the Trafford Centre – one of the biggest malls in the UK!

Crick BioImage Analysis Symposium 2026

📣We’re back 🔬👀🖥️!
#CBIAS2026 returns 23–24 November 2026:
Join the bioimage analysis community to discuss advances in quantitative imaging & computational methods for image analysis. Great opportunity for early-career analysts & microscopists to present and connect.
#CBIAS2026 #BioimageAnalysis

The #CBIAS2025 poster collection is now available, along with associated DOIs for further dissemination. Take a look!

Many many thanks, and happy holidays!

Merci beaucoup David! Happy holidays ☺️

Fully embracing the whimsy of UK academia is a nice way to end the year. Specially because my family could be there, like they’ve been all the way. Plus the Manchester doctoral gown has *excellent* colours 🪻🍇🌻

I've always thought Morgan's White Eyed Drosophila paper is neat! (if not *too classic*) It's a cool story, reads like a lab report and even as an undergrad not studying in English it was simple enough to follow. www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/1...

I wrote my first proper post on LinkedIn today. It was cheesy, bit of a weird thing to do.

Bottom line is I'm still buzzing from spending two days playing with napari sourounded by kind microscopy nerds at the #CBIAS2025 Napari Workshop.

Introduction to CellProfiler - by a biologist, for biologists! YouTube video by CellMorphoJSero

If you or your trainees are just getting started with image analysis of cells & are #CellProfiler -curious, here is a fairly thorough walk-through demo I did recently. Loading files, extracting metadata (fun with Regex!), identifying objects, measuring, filtering, QC, exporting:

And perhaps we could have a bit more funding for scientific infrastructure? Because without that nobody (stars or otherwise) is going to get anything done.

An immense thank you again to @cbias.bsky.social committee, sponsors and fellow imaging friends for this fantastic symposium!
It's is not the end but the beginning of tons of papers to read, colleagues to contact, new collaborations to form. And most importantly, it's a 'see you soon' #CBIAS2026 🔬🥰

I really recommend @cbias.bsky.social !

See what we said last year, with @zeinabrekad.bsky.social and @fmlove.bsky.social

This year will my 6th time! 🎉🔬

I am QT dunking but I think this is a case where it is warranted:
Science is political and "not wanting to see politics" as a scientist is a political choice. You may decide it's what works for you, but you need to decide how that fits with the fact your (diverse) colleagues still exist 🧪

Hello! Very excited to share our latest preprint, which is great news for us but terrible news for any diehard fans of PSNR and SSIM as image quality metrics in microscopy... (1/5)
