USES, ABUSES AND UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE The semi-annual workshop on Digital Images in Science will be given January 5, 2012. The primary goal of the workshop is to show that the image is really data, to illustrate what can be done with those data, and the ease with which they can be compromised. Presentations will include what constitutes a digital image, what goes into acquiring good images, as well as jargon and concepts associated with digital images. These include such topics as pixels, resolution, over-saturation, color space, image format, bit depth, and image processing filters. While the use of digital images is common in a wide variety of scientific disciplines, the majority of examples will come from the world of microscopy. Options and formats for presentation of images will also be presented, as will a discussion of the ethical (and not so ethical) use of digital images. It should be noted that this is NOT a workshop on image analysis, microscope techniques, or a Photoshop tutorial. The workshop will be held from 8:30AM to 1 PM in room B109 in the Drachman Building. Registration is limited to the first 90 applications, so make your reservation soon.
