Creative minds from the imaging community coming together: hopefully a lot of reusable content will to flow into Microscopy.DB tools section 🤩 elmi.embl.org/tools/

Job alert! I am looking to recruit a bioimage analyst to work with us the Image Analysis Hub core facility of the Institut Pasteur, since 1887 It is a full time, permanent position as a research engineer, working onsite. Some details and links below ⬇️ Please forward to your networks!

We added some tools to the MicroscopyDB tools database, that can be explored via the European Light Microscopy Initiative tools page, for instance the Leica Microsystems Galvo stage insert storage stand - more to show at #ELMI2024 - visit our posters, join the ELMI-CF day

Freshly printed: we made a holder for the power sensor, resembling the sample-chamber for the ZEISS Microscopy Lightsheet7 system. Soon to be added at the European Light Microscopy Initiative tools-section, powered by MicroscopyDB after the initial testing. Check how to measure powers properly QUAREP-LiMi

Besides expanding our machine park, technologies, microscope rooms and building locations across campus, we are also looking to enlarge our team. We are searching for a motivated organizer with a nick for microscopy & cytometry. Details behind the click 🔬ista.ac.at/en/job/?title=…

Boosting image analysis knowledge during the ZEISS Microscopy & @zeiss_arivis workshop here at ISTAustria - integrated ML and DL options, as well as learning about elaborate image analysis workflows 🔬🤩

Instead of new adding systems, we were challenged to empty one of our microscope rooms ‘within a week’: 5 systems were dismantled, moved (across campus), reassembled, recalibrated and reimplemented in time - as well as all cupboards emptied and resorted 💪🏻 #teamwork

Very pleased with the result of the system relocation. Our newest microscope room in the moonstone building is filling up, and system are ready to go! 🔬😎

We have the pleasure to host Katherina Garcia, from Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo for a 1 month job-shadow - supported by EMBO - to exchange experiences about facility-structure, quality control, lightsheet & multi-photon imaging and further exchanges with Vienna area facilities 🔬🤩👍🏻

Excited to have had the opportunity to show and exchange ideas with Erin Tranfield - @drtranfield.bsky.social about our facility Imaging & Optics Facility (IOF/ISTA) , and to catch up with ‘the important things of life’ #facilityfriends

We had a fantastic start of the ZEISS Microscopy tissue clearing workshop ISTAustria 👀 There is still a lot to explore on the sample preparations and imaging: Lightsheet 7, Lattice SIM3 (demo)or Axiozoom-ApotomPlus(demo) 🤩 🔬🪄#tissueclearing #jointhecommunity

During the ISTAustria life science retreat (LSR), Bernhard Hochreiter presented the recent developments of our Imaging & Optics Facility services. Marco Dalla Vecchia presented a poster with our Image Analysis Services.

Installation completed: we are very much looking forward to the Lattice Lighsheet application training next week - another advanced imaging modality that we are adding to our portfolio - and still more to come this year... 🪄🔬 ISTAustria

After an exciting week with a fresh installation of the LLS, we received the next ‘2.5 systems’ today that now stand in line for installation next week on the prepared locations -🔬+🔬🪤 ISTAustria

Sabine from our Imaging & Optics Facility (IOF) team surprised us with her impressive baking skills, and brought an IOF - ‘Krampus’ - Tiramisu and an very tasty gingerbread Santa 🎅🏼 This is all very well matching the Feuerzangenbohwle that we also prepared for the occasion 🤩

From a stack of boxes 📦 , to a full spinning disk system build, to optical trap add-on to application training in just over 3 weeks: amazed with the company teamwork Nikon Microscope Solutions IMPETUX OPTICS S.L. CrestOptics and dedicated system implementation of IOF staff and ISTA machine shop🤩

The Imaging & Optics Facility team ISTAustria wishes you a *happy New Year*:
