napari needs your help! Has napari helped you make cool and groundbreaking discoveries? We'd love to highlight that in our docs. Please tell us about it! You can fill in this survey:
napari.typeform.com/to/vTCKeTKv
and/or, as ever, drop by our chat room or meetings:
napari.org/dev/community/
🙏
Speaking of units and axes metadata, try out the newly released napari-metadata (napari.org/napari-metad...)! This nifty plugin is available on pypi, conda-forge, and in the bundle. You can visualize and change layer metadata on the fly. Feedback especially encouraged! 😇
If you've been wondering what our current obsession with OME-Zarr and lego blocks is about, I have good news for you: the Fractal preprint is out!
Thanks to @joelluethi.bsky.social , all co-authors, and the Fractal developers and users community for making this beautiful project a reality ❤️
Calling all OME Community members, contributors, and lurkers! Please take a minute to answer the OME 2026 Community Survey (docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...) to help us prepare for discussing the future of OME governance during the OME 2026 Community Meeting at the end of April.
Let's get ready for a full month of training in image analysis in @pasteur.fr , this summer!
Are you interested in learning how to do bioimage analysis? For light microscopy? for cryo-EM? And for cellular cryo-EM?
Stay tuned, Pasteur offers access to THREE courses, this June.
👇🎓
BIG UPDATES!
OCTRON now supports the new SAM3 models (alongside SAM2)!
We’ve also added a global switch for Detection vs. Segmentation: Use the same annotations to train either lightweight detection or full segmentation models. Plus, we’ve added support for the new YOLO26 models. ⤵️

Drawing of the "Aeon" project, an open-source platform to study the neural basis of ethological behaviours over naturalistic timescales.
Are you a neuroscientist with great coding skills, or a software engineer interested in the brain?
We are recruiting for a research software engineer to help us build pipelines to process weeks of neural and behavioural recordings from freely moving animals.
More details: bit.ly/rse-2026a
A cochlea imaged in light-sheet microscopy (right) with staining for spiral ganglion neurons (red) and inner hair cells (blue). You will develop AI-based methods to analyze these structures, for example via segmentation of the individual cells (right) that will support gene therapy development for hearing loss and a better overall understanding of the anatomy of hearing.
Looking for a PhD position at the intersection of AI, imaging, and gene therapy? Apply for this position in my lab: tinyurl.com/2a2v6tvx
Part of sfb1690.uni-goettingen.de to study hearing, vision, and more.
Plus, you can create pretty pictures as the one below :).
Apply to join #BoBiAC2026 this summer! You'll learn how to use Python to segment fluorescence images w/tools like @ilastik-team.bsky.social & CellposeSAM, & even learn how to measure cell features, neighborhood relationships, & colocalization. No coding experience needed! More info: bobiac.github.io
Excited to share our new paper (CVPR 2026 🚀): "MuViT: Multi-Resolution Vision Transformers for Learning Across Scales in Microscopy" which enables local predictions to use global context.
Great work led by @albertdm.bsky.social & another fun collab w @gioelelamanno.bsky.social! @scadsai.bsky.social
