New blog post! Before heading off to @globias.bsky.social we'd love to hear about how image analysis is performed and accessed by the microscopy community! Find info and link here: ausbias.org/blog/2025/10...

Halfway to I2K is BACK, friends of all kinds! Last year, 650 people attended 30+ TOTALLY FREE image analysis workshops of all kinds, across many timezones.

If you make image analysis software and want to teach it, workshop submissions are open now! We'd love to have your tool highlighted.

One of the great things about HPC is the ability to fail at so many more things at once.

Trying to fill out the calendar for AusBIAS monthly online meetings. 3 or 4 spots left that will go to members first if requested, but if you're an internationally based image analyst and would like an invite - let me know! Just be aware of time zones, +10GMT isn't great for everyone!

We present the #imageresolutionparadox phenomenon for #DL-results 🤓

Why do lower-resolution images sometimes yield better results in deep learning for bioimaging analyses? 🤔📉

Mariana Ferreira's new preprint on #ReScale4DL explores this paradox and introduces optimal resolution design! @gomez-mariscal.bsky.social brainchild🧑‍🔬✨

All I wanted to do was add the bsky logo to the footer of our new website. Down the rabbit hole I went and now have a fully custom Jekyll site with manual theme control and custom GitHub Actions deployment.

I really want to "attend" (watch live) the upcoming @globias.bsky.social webinar - but the tyranny of distance puts it at 2am for me. Luckily it'll be posted on youtube.

How's this? I currently have 95 followers on this account. If I can get to 250 before the webinar I'll live post it.
