Introduction to Programming for Image Processing

Infomration

Both the date and the program are preliminary and can be subject to change. Registration will be opened a few months before the event. Thank you for your understanding.


Basic information

The course is tailored to users already familiar with the basics of image processing. It will be focused on automatization, high throughput and basic scripting. Course participants will learn how to create and edit macros in ImageJ and how to write more sophisticated scripts for batch processing. Furthermore, they will learn the basics of image processing in Matlab and Cellpose.
