Today at @qiatcshl.bsky.social , @emiglietta.bsky.social teaching the good word of CellProfiler!
A tall bearded man with a hat and glasses stands beneath a slide at the front of a room with some chairs. The slide shows images going into some cartoon pipes, with a CellProfiler logo at the top right. He's doing a very good job explaining the concepts!

Today @bethcimini.bsky.social and @damiandn.bsky.social lectured on image correction and colocalization. Key take-home: The computer can’t do magic; if you don’t collect photons at the microscope you can’t make them appear later.
