Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Not only for developmental biology, this course provides a theoretical and practical understanding of microscopy and digital imaging in biosciences research. Main topics to be covered:
Fundamental concepts of images and imaging science
Physical and theoretical principles of vision and light microscopy
Theory of color perception and color representation
Theoretical and computational principles of digital images
Elementary image filtering and manipulation
3D image representation and display
X-ray tomography and other 3D image acquisition methods
Using image data in scientific publications
Managing and archiving scientific images

Additional topics may be covered according to students' interests. The course format is an interactive seminar with lectures, discussion, and in-class exercises.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Discussion of topics and homework exercises, and individual short presentations of assigned topics.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

This is a graduate-level course whose purpose is for students to learn about imaging principles, methods, and applications in life sciences. The approach is to involve students in their own learning: this requires active engagement and actual effort on your part, not just sitting in a room where I happen to be talking.
In a continuous-assessment (prüfungsimmanent) course, participation is not only critical to learning but also an important part of evaluation. I will not record attendance per se, but instead count actual participation, lack of participation, and impairment of others' participation. I may also give some in-class assignments to help you keep up.
Homework assignments are generally due before the beginning of class. Late homework can receive a maximum of half credit. If you miss a class, you can still turn in the homework for credit.

Prüfungsstoff

Class participation, homework assignments, in-class exercises, presentations (prüfungsimmanent - no exam).

Literatur

Weekly reading assignments of scientific papers, and other selected resources on scientific imaging and microscopy.
