Deep learning enabled image-driven scientific discovery seminar

28th of March 2024 at 13:00 — 14:00
Auditorium Biochemistry, Biocity 3rd floor, Tykistökatu 6, 20520 Turku

Estibaliz Gómez de Mariscal will be giving a seminar entitled

Deep learning enabled image-driven scientific discovery

Host: Guillaumen Jacquemet (guillaume.jacquemet@abo.fi)

Esti is currently a postdoctoral researcher in Prof. Ricardo Henriques’ group at Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência in Portugal and is visiting us for a few weeks.

Abstract:
Recent advancements in bioimage analysis, particularly leveraging deep learning techniques, are revolutionising image-driven scientific discovery by enhancing the speed, accuracy and capacity to extract valuable insights and relationships from biological images. Their ability to uncover intricate patterns and seamlessly adapting to the increasing volume of experimental data holds promise for heuristic approaches in research. In this seminar, I will introduce our methodological contributions within the realm of 3D cancer cell migration and phototoxicity assessment. Our journey will begin with a discussion on how automated segmentation and tracking methodologies provided us better with a better understanding of dendritic protrusions’ role in mesenchymal 3D cell migration and have let us quantify diverse migration patterns. Furthermore, I will discuss our research concerning the quantitative evaluation of cell photodamage in the context of live-cell imaging acquisitions.
Lastly, I will briefly introduce the different tools developed together with colleagues to foster the accessibility and reproducibility of deep learning approaches. These collaborative efforts include tools to deploy trained deep learning models (deepImageJ), easily train and evaluate them ensuring their long-term reproducibility (DL4MicEverywhere), and openly share them in a documented manner (BioImage Model Zoo).
