Data and Image Analysis Special Interest Group Meeting,
SBS 12th Conference – Seattle, WA
September 19, 2006, 1:00pm to 2:30pm
The following topics were addressed:
Influence of image acquisition modalities (confocal, widefield, LSC) on the quality of data derived from images.
What needs to happen in this industry so that users could take advantage of the best image acquisition, image analysis and data analysis for their assays?
This year we used a new format for the meeting. Rather than have long presentations, which leave little time for discussions, we merged the presentation and panel concepts. The panel was self-selected; everybody who wanted was included. Every panelist made a short presentation (<= 5 slides) making one point. The presentations were followed by a general discussion.
