Press releases
To extend the image analysis platform napari, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is funding two projects of the ISAS research groups AMBIOM - Analysis of Microscopic BIOMedical Images and Spatial Metabolomics. They will develop software that scientists worldwide can use free of charge. One of the new Dortmund plugins will enable better cell analysis (segmentation, tracking). The second plugin will improve the integration of mass spectrometry image data with other image formats. Professor Kristina Lorenz and her interdisciplinary team found a peptide agent against heart failure. For this achievment, she has been awarded the Phoenix Pharmacy Prize in the category "Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy". Led by Dr Jianxu Chen, the junior research group AMBIOM plans to develop algorithms and methods that will allow countless image data worldwide to be analysed automatically, quickly and economically.
