The abstract submission deadline for #CBIAS2025 has just closed and, for the first time, we have a near perfect gender-balance in our abstract submissions.

In fact, we have slightly more submissions from women than men.

Image quality metrics fail to accurately represent biological information in fluorescence microscopy

Image processing methods offer the potential to improve the quality of fluorescence microscopy data, allowing for image acquisition at lower, less phototoxic illumination doses. The training and evalu...
