Don't let the price of QI deter you!
QI offers financial aid through NCI, HHMS, and @bioimagingna.bsky.social.
Include a brief statement of need with your application.
Aid is distributed by CSHL (not the course instructors).
Many of our students - sometimes all! - receive significant support.
Applications for QI 2026 are due on Friday! ๐ฌ ๐ฅ๏ธ ๐ ๐บ

Happy Expansion Microscopy Day at Quantitative Imaging @qiatcshl.bsky.social
Our latest preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1..., describes Willi Steppโs project to make smart microscopy even gentler by doing event detection in phase contrast. We developed neural networks to detect mito-LD and mito-lysosome contacts, as well as mitochondrial pre-fission constrictions.
Light sheet baby!! QI2025

Congratulations to students @nancypaniagua.bsky.social & Michal for placing 1st & 2nd place in our @ilastik-team.bsky.social pixel classifier challenge to segment with the least amount of annotations! #lazyannotationsftw
The students (totally) loved our TIRF lab! Check out this fluorescein solution sample we used to visualize internal reflection on the scope - ๐ธ by student Augusto Berrocal
Week 2! ๐ฌ๐ฅ๏ธ๐
Our image analysis expert instructors, @bethcimini.bsky.social, @damiandn.bsky.social, @florianjug.bsky.social & Hunter Elliott, are in full swing!
It's TIRF time again at QI!!! ๐ ๐ฌCheck out @jencwaters.bsky.social's infamous TIRF demo to understand the principle behind total internal reflection vs refraction! #gonetirfing #criticallyawesome
