WG 12 - Objectives

The Image Analysis and Visualization Working Group (WG 12) will provide guidelines for scientists to publish accessible and understandable images, including their reproducible processing and analysis procedures. Publishing of light microscopy image data should include key information about image acquisition (Link:WG11), image reconstruction, processing and analysis, as well as image visualisation and image data availability (safeguarding e.g. in repositories).

WG12 will provide a white-paper, guidelines, training materials, teaching slides with example images, and an application of the guidelines in a video-tutorial. WG12 has members from academic and corporate research, and publishing. Members are active in image analysis, image publishing, image software design, and data visualisation.

The Einstein Early Career Award for Promoting Quality in Research celebrates outstanding early career researchers who are pioneering improvements in the quality, transparency, and reproducibility of science. Among this year’s inspiring finalists were Helene Jambor and Christopher Schmied, who took home the Award for their innovative work on guidelines to elevate the publication and analysis of scientific images. Their efforts are setting new standards in research and empowering scientists to create clearer, more reliable discoveries!

Helena Jambor and Christopher Schmied from Working Group 12 have been selected as one of the five finalists for the 2024 Early Career Einstein Foundation Award with their proposal, "PixelQuality: Best Practices for Publishing Images". Their project will be presented at Berlin Science Week on November 5th. (For more information, visit Berlin Science Week.)
