november 14, 1888 : inauguration of the Institut Pasteur ©Institut Pasteur
137 years ago today 🎂 Institut Pasteur opened in Paris (Nov 14, 1888 🏛️)
Funded by 100K+ donors after the rabies vaccine success, it launched a scientific legacy:
🔬 10 Nobel Prizes
🌍 32 Pasteur Network Institutes
💉 Countless lives saved
From rabies to COVID-19, the mission continues.

Accurate cell segmentation in ST data faces challenges like overlapping cells, transcript diffusion, background noise, and missing nuclei. Conservative assignments may over-segment cells, while under-segmentation leads to false positives that contaminate profiles. Effective segmentation must balance splitting cells and merging multiple cells.
2/ If you’ve worked with Spatial Transcriptomics (ST) data, you’ve indeed had some troubles with segmentation accuracy. Segmentation problems mess up downstream analysis & obscure cell-cell interactions - which are ST’s biggest promises. #segger
Do you LOVE organelles??

The #biovoxxel figure tools provide a convenient way in saving SVG vector graphic from Fiji and create publication figures in Inkscape.
Thanks to Ved Sharma those SVGs can now also be opened in the browser and even in Adobe Illustrator, if you really have to use it (I won't blame you 😉)

Today, I would like to highlight the amazing IJ-wrapper 😎 for cellpose, omnipose and StarDist and more from
@romainguiet.bsky.social
and colleagues. It allows seamless integration of DL tools in a Fiji batch workflow including all imgae pre- and post-processing and analysis steps.
👍🤗
Congratulations Christophe! (& Alexis)🤗👍
