Mini Core Facility

Okinawa Microscopy Workshop 2024 I had the incredible opportunity to attend the microscopy workshop at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology . I was immersed in a wealth of microscopy knowledge and bioimage data analysis. The instructors from AIC Janelia HHMI , the Neuroscience Microscopy Core Facility at UNC , and the Image Facility at OIST were true experts, enthusiastically sharing their experiences in microscopy, bioimage analysis, and scientific integrity. They even encouraged us to share the teaching materials to help grow the bioimage community within Southeast Asia! I feel so fortunate to have been selected as a participant – I hear the competition was fierce! Workshop participants came from all across Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Cambodia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines) and nearly every region of Japan! The atmosphere was dynamic, productive, and occasionally a bit stressful as we worked to complete our assignments. https://www.aicjanelia
