Thanks to generous funding from @bioimagingna.bsky.social, We were able to offer nearly half of our #BoBiAC2026 students fee waivers so that they could attend the course! The students also got to hear more about BINA programming & resources during a guest presentation from BINA 🔬
![Screenshot of Figure 5: Interoperable smart microscopy ecosystem. Concept of a modular architecture for smart microscopy, where standardized experiment descriptions (e.g. useq-schema) and open data formats (e.g. OME-Zarr) allow integration of diverse microscopes, analysis tools, and user interfaces. Core components such as segmentation [76], [77], tracking [79], [80], and experiment logic are decoupled from specific hardware, enabling reuse across platforms. The system supports multiple input modalities (code, GUI, or natural language) and can be extended with additional devices like fluidics or environmental control modules. This structure enables flexible, feedback-driven acquisition strategies and cross-platform reproducibility.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nu3blzcicfdcervvflppzu2g/bafkreicjxhss2pwmowrhmyfqtxw73hfzkna2ngt3rhdemypk47vdk35uvq)
