OMERO Workshop: Mastering Microscopy Data
27.-28.06.2024, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm
Multiscale Imaging Centre, 120.223 + 120.223A
Registration: Please register via mail to imaging@uni-muenster.de.
20 places for participants available.
Join us at the upcoming OMERO Research Data Management Workshop, an invaluable experience designed for PhD students, master students, researchers, lab technicians and all who are looking to streamline the organization and analysis of microscopy data. This two-day workshop will provide comprehensive training on OMERO, an open-source platform that has revolutionized the way microscopy images and data are handled.
Workshop Overview: The session will kick off with an introduction to OMERO, highlighting its capabilities in securely managing, sharing, and viewing large bio-imaging datasets. Participants will gain insights into the core features of OMERO, including its flexible data model and intuitive user interface.
Key Takeaways:
- Data Organization: Learn how to import and manage your microscopy data using OMERO’s hierarchical data structure. Understand how to tag and annotate images to enhance searchability and collaboration.
- Data Visualization and Figure creation: Explore the tools within OMERO for on-the-fly visualization of images. We will demonstrate how to use OMERO’s integrated viewer to zoom, pan, and adjust the display settings of your images for better analysis. Also learn how to create publication-ready figures quickly and effortlessly using OMERO.figure.
- Data Sharing and Security: Discover how OMERO supports controlled access even to very large datasets, allowing you to share all your data with collaborators.
- Hands-On Training: Engage in hands-on exercises to practice importing your own data into OMERO, organizing datasets and creating figures. This practical session will equip you with the skills to leverage OMERO effectively in your own research group.

Seminar series “fluorescence microscopy”
We provide an introduction into different instruments and methods for fluorescence microscopy – starting with the preparation of samples as well as basic functions and instrument settings up to characteristics in the technical design of special microscopes. The techniques covered include fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and fluorescence-lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), super-resolution methods such as stimulated emission depletion (STED) and single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), and single particle tracking. Everyone working at Münster University, and especially master and doctoral students, are welcome to participate!
Currently no dates scheduled.
