Not going to be in Cracow for the big event so had to make do with a small impromptu @napari.org x @openmicroscopy.org #omezarr Hackathon in Bern 🔬🇨🇭 @m-albert.bsky.social @guiwitz.bsky.social
Just passing through, but wouldn't miss this stunning piece of #brutalism - St. Joseph in #lehavre, France
Struggling for something to do in a TWO DAY gap without ⚽? How about trying our pre-release of napari 0.8.0? napari.org/dev/release/... Of note, this release drops Py3.10 support and deprecates PyQt5 in favor of PyQt6. It also adds some neat new features and improvements! See below: 👇
Warum fällt es mir schwer, hier an Zufall zu glauben? Und selbst wenn es einer sein sollte: das ist ein Versagen vermeintlich „neutraler“ KI. Gerade im Vergleich zu Claude mit viel ausgewogeneren Werten.
🚨Just out: #NGFF specification 0.6 (rc0): ngff.openmicroscopy.org/specificatio... What's new, what's what? Short thread 🧵👇

Zugbetrieb Bundesweit eingestellt www.zuginfo.nrw Aufgrund eines Ausfalls des Zugfunkes ist der Zugbetrieb Bundesweit eingestellt. Das Ende können wir leider noch nicht abschätzen. Grund: Technische Störung am #Zugfunk. Sobald uns weitere Informationen vorliegen wird die Meldung aktualisiert. 😮
Nordrhein-Westfalen: Bahnverkehr bundesweit komplett eingestellt
Die Bahn hat gerade offenbar massive Probleme mit dem Zugfunk. Deshalb ist der Zugbetrieb bundesweit eingestellt worden.

4 days of #ELMI2026 have just come to an end. A huge thank you and congratulations to @ppbioimaging.bsky.social for an outstanding organization and hospitality. It was an honor to participate and represent @nfdi4bioimage.bsky.social's work within this great scientific community. 👏🙏
You can't spell AI without FAIR❗ Here are the presentation slides from @jo-soltwedel.bsky.social talk, "You Can't Spell AI Without FAIR: How Data Management Leaves Footprints in Image Analysis," presented at the #ELMI2026 conference. 👉 Find the presentation on Zenodo: doi.org/10.5281/zeno...
New napari release 😍
napari@napari.org · 2mo agonapari 0.7.1 is now available!! 🚀 🎉 Read the full release notes here: napari.org/stable/relea... Highlights: the scale bar inherits units from layers, colorbars for points layers, locking layers, and a signed Windows bundle! We thank especially our 9 new brilliant contributors 🤩
🚨New release 🚨 We just released ome-zarr-py 0.18 (pypi.org/project/ome-...), which brings an all new, shiny API for reading and writing #OME-ZARR data. Check out the documentation 📚 for more hints: ome-zarr.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ @openmicroscopy.org @will-j-moore.bsky.social
Great interactive talk about surveys/interactive survey about talks and cognitive biases from my colleague @lisa-schaefer.bsky.social from @gerbi-gmb.de at #ELMI2026
Just gave a talk at #ELMI2026 and a panel discussion about how #FAIR data impacts #AI and its use in #bio-image-analysis 🔬🧪- and what we at @gerbi-gmb.de do about it 👷👷♀️ Slides available here: zenodo.org/records/2070...
Turns out, there are fully opened LIDAR point scans of the whole Netherlands surface available geotiles.nl With up to 25 cm. It was hard not to load our building and around it into #bigvolumebrowser (22 M points + Fire LUT for height)
