nice to see fellow Latin American presenting on how the Smithsonian Tropival Research Institute (STRI) is using OMERO to manage data on ancient polen from the Amazon forest (at #OME2026) "the solution I have been waiting my whole life"

A significant moment at #OME2026: Thanking Prof. Jason Swedlow, the founder of OME, who shaped this remarkable community work since the beginning of the millenium. His work & leadership were honored - even with a nod to his famous blue shirts by OME's Interim Board, nominated by Jason in Oct '25.

Yup, at least for Vscode. It requires an account but otherwise free and learns from your own code base, which is nice.

Finally had a bit of time to play with multi-GPU deconvolution. Using @truenorth-ia.bsky.social and @haesleinhuepf.bsky.social previous work. Here it is in action in #BigDataViewer using async and lazy processing. Look at the two poor laptop GPUs going as fast as they can:

#BIAToolTip No.15 On Windows there is the ColourSimulator App which allows you to simulate on your screen with a slidable window to inspect design or images to check if those are inclusive for color deficient vision. The #biovoxxel LUT Channels Tool provides a related functionality.
A screenshot showing the use of the Windows ColourSimulatons app to quickly check color blind friendly display and color usage in images. It shows one image of fluorescently stained cells while combining red, green and blue colors and another one using cyan, yellow and magenta together with the apps sliding window that simulates the color blind vision on screen. Additionally it displays the pop-up menu for the tool.

Why #BigDataViewer loves multi-resolution (pyramidal) formats: - Top left: Only high-res data → slow & artifacts when zoomed out. - Top right: Only low-res data → no details when zoomed in. - Bottom: All resolutions → seamless, responsive, beautiful. 🎥 #FijiSc
