Reminder: LAST DAY to register for our 2018 Annual Users Meeting! https://www.buyat.dundee.ac.uk/conferences-and-events/school-of-life-sciences/ome-annual-users-meeting/2018-ome-annual-users-meeting … Meet the devs & community behind

25/04/2018

It's the LAST WEEK to register for our 2018 Annual Users Meeting! The meeting brings together members of OME and the wider imaging community to discuss their work and define priorities for future development of specifications and software. It's an excellent opportunity for members of the imaging community - developers, users, scientists from biology, computing and data analysis - to meet and share their work, needs and visions for driving discovery with imaging data.

The OME Consortium is delighted that the 2018 Annual User's Meeting will be held on 30th May - 1st June 2018 at the University of Dundee, Scotlan
