Value comes from outstanding communication and high quality research. Let me help you using my 20 years biological research experience, formal business training, and passion for imaging software to solve your problems. Autoradiography and optical microscopy are my specialties.

 

My current work involves the training and development of workflows based on using Photoshop CS3 Extended and associated software.

Photoshop® CS3 Extended for Research
3 hr Workshop

Session 1 8:30am – 11:30am
Session 2 12:30pm – 3:30pm (Repeat)

While Photoshop has been a useful tool for image processing in research now it can do even more. This workshop will focus on CS3 Extended's new capabilities and revisit some core features.  Over three hours we will cover how to use Photoshop CS3's selection, analysis, and editing tools to evaluate an image's color composition and modify images for research. We will optimize exposure with levels and curves, transform images with layers, and compensate for acquisition problems and limitations. I will also demonstrate adding reference information to images, optimizing DICOM images, and sharing finished images with colleagues. Examples from research will demonstrate real life workflows that aided in evaluating potential therapeutics. Images used in this workshop will be from a variety of sources including microscopes, scanners, digital cameras, medical imaging and scientific imaging equipment.
(Space is limited to 20 participants per workshop.)

This training introduces using Photoshop for biomedical imaging research. I demonstrate Adobe's newest version of Photoshop, CS3 Extended, and how it can be applied in research. I show how to use Photoshop CS3's selection, analysis, and editing tools to evaluate an image's color composition, modify images for research, optimize exposure with levels and curves, transform images with layers, and compensate for acquisition problems and limitations. I also explain how to add reference information to images, annotate and optimize DICOM animations, and share finished images with colleagues. Images come from a variety of sources; scanners, microscopes, and autoradiographic imaging  equipment.
