BioImage Informatics 2021 is an annual meeting in the processing, analysis, and extraction of information and knowledge from biological images. This conference will be held in virtual from November 29 to December 1, 2021, and is organised by Jean-Christophe Olivo-Marin (Institut Pasteur), Charles Kervrann (Inria), Jean Salamero (Institut Curie) and Jean-Yves Tinevez (Institut Pasteur).

This year’s edition of the BioImage Informatics conference will happen fully online, and rely on a very nice website built specially for the conference. There will be a dedicated space for poster presentations where presenters will be able to interact with the audience, leave a video or materials when they are not here, etc…

There will be a space for job fair and general announcements as well.

BioImage Informatics 2021 meeting will include, but not be limited to, the following topics:

  • Advanced analytical solutions for bioimage processing and analysis
  • Statistical spatial analysis of cellular or molecular distributions
  • Applications of machine and deep learning to analysis of cellular structure and related functions
  • Quantification of dynamic images and transport phenomena Automation of data acquisition and analysis
  • Dynamic cell imaging and biological processes
  • Reconstruction and analysis of structure and function of biological networks
  • Registration, correlation and fusion of multimodality data

BioImage Informatics will feature a variety of types of presentations: invited talks (45’), selected talks from abstracts (20’) and posters.

Invited Speakers

  • Yonina Eldar, Weissmann Institute, Israel
  • Michael Liebling, EPFL/IDIAP, Switzerland
  • Emma Lundberg, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden
  • Jong Chul Ye, KAIST, Korea

Abstract submission and Registration for BioImage Informatics 2021 are now open!

  • All abstracts for selected talk and poster consideration must be submitted by October 15, 2021 and should not exceed 350 words (excluding authors and affiliations).
  • You may submit as many abstracts as you like.
  • At least one author of each paper or poster must register and attend the conference in order to be listed in the conference programme as a presenter. Authors will have the opportunity to edit an originally-submitted abstract before it is published in conference proceedings.
  • Only accepted abstracts and fully paid registration will be printed in the PDF programme book.

Dear Bioimaging colleagues,

NEUBIAS, the Network of European BioImage Analysts (www.neubias.org), is delighted to announce two new Training Schools on BioImage Analysis:

  • for Early Career Investigators (life scientists)
  • for Facility staff (imaging & analysis staff from core-facilities)

The focus of training will be on construction and automation of BioImage Analysis workflows, using as examples more than one toolbox and different exercises. The schools will be held in Edinburgh, 16-19th of October 2018, hosted by the MRC Center for Regenerative Medicine/Imaging facility and co-organized by the University of Edinburgh and University of Dundee.

NEUBIAS schools are an excellent opportunity to learn from many experts in Bioimage Analysis (we are expecting >30 specialists at the event) and “….a great mix of intensive learning and community networking” (former trainee testimonial!). The schools will include practical sessions and seminars on ImageJ for analysis and publication, scripting/macros in ImageJ and Matlab, Omero, CellProfiler, QuPath, Ilastik, Ethics in Image Analysis and work on own data.

  • Applications are now open (each school has 20 available seats and ~7 trainers)
  • Applicants are highly encouraged to bring their own laptops and data.
  • Within the COST framework (funders of NEUBIAS), 7 travel grants per school are offered to applicants who qualify.
  • Registration requires a “letter of motivation” (filled in application form) and later a confirmation of status.
  • Application deadline:  May 11th 2018
  • Selection notification: 1st week of June 2018.

More information about schools (programme & trainers) and venue, travel & lodge available at our website:

NEUBIAS is an European network of >220 members and 41 countries, which aims to promote the communication between Life Scientists, Instrumentalists, Developers and BioImage Analysts and to establish and promote the role of Bioimage Analysts in Life Science. Our mission includes:
– A training programme for 3 different target audiences:”Early Career” researchers, (core) Facility Staff and Bioimage Analysts (running until 2020 – expected 400 trainees and 15 training schools).
– Promote different yearly events (NEUBIAS Conference, workshops [training schools], Taggathons)
– Online Resources: Repository of tools and workflows e.g. biii.eu, Benchmarking and Sample datasets, Training material and Open Textbook.
– A Short Term Scientific Mission mobility programme for Scientists to visit Host Labs and get in depth insights into cutting edge Image Analysis technology.
– A “ITC conference grants” programme to support travel for Early career Investigators from Inclusiveness Target Countries to present their work at conferences.
– Outreach material.
