We are happy to announce that this year's SwitZerland's Image and Data Analysis School (ZIDAS) edition will take place in person at EPFL July 5-10, 2026.
We are looking forward to an interesting and inspiring week of bio-image analysis. The application process will start soon.

What I understood is that it seems that events have a BIOS, presumably before they boot into access to attendees and I don’t know why one would want to add that information there.
Schools don’t incentivise learning yourself. The assignment are graded. Form is emphasised over content. Where do you reward making mistakes and learning yourself? There is no moral high ground in stating it makes no sense, if the institutions are literally asking for the opposite.
I am not sure I see that. There is a race to the common denominator on how to present the findings pushed by colleagues, reviewers, editors and the fear to be accepted and funded. Publish or perish has side effects towards the how to publish.

Today is my birthday, and the best gift for me will be a retweet. My name is Vitalii. I am from Ukraine and open for commissions, so if you would like to get #SciFi artwork (spaceships, vehicles, dystopian future), I will gladly do this. You can contact me here or via valahor@gmail.com
So, everybody, just follow me · 'Cause we need a little controversy‘

Great. 👍 It is mostly muscles and hardly fat. It’s what makes them dangerous.

Unpopular opinion but wouldn’t all off Señor Coconut releases qualify as better covers ?

Shouldn’t we be more embracing the imperfections and go with the science is communicated in broken English - spoken slowly equivalent of formatting?
I fully agree and I appreciate a professional carried approach.
However, it’s about science and content. If the AI chatbot revolution told me anything, the hard focus on style is at times is not helpful.
Why not provide ebook files, leaving the choice of font to the reader ?
Also likely the better standard than pdf, just saying.
At least you looked good.
Sometimes that’s all we got.
Professor @mancusorenzo.bsky.social just presented his new work at #NHD25.
Some of his key findings include:
• GRN LOF→ microglial overactivation and lysosomal failure
• Lysosomal failure → microglial degeneration eventually worsening neuropathology
Job alert!
We are looking for a bioimage analysis to work in an image analysis core facility in beautiful Paris. Can I ask you to share this opportunity with your networks?

Belgium had the seat in Europe during that time and is was considered a very productive period!
Also, similar to large genomes redundancy adds resilience !
