Section: Overall Objectives

Organization and collaborations

In collaboration with UMR 144 CNRS-Institut Curie (“Space Time imaging of Endomembranes and organelles Dynamics” team) and PICT-IBiSA (Cell and Tissue Imaging Facilities), the members of the Serpico team have participated in several projects (PhD and post-doc supervision, contracts...) in the field of cell biology and microscopy. We have promoted non-parametric methods since prior knowledge cannot be easily taken into account for extracting unattended but desired information from image data. We have also proposed user-friendly algorithms for processing 2D and 3D image sequences. The projects of Serpico were in line with several studies led in the UMR 144 CNRS-Institut Curie Unit. A subset of studies was related to instrumentation in electronic and photonic microscopy (PICT-IBiSA platform) including computational aspects on the reconstruction and enhancement of images related to sub-diffraction light microscopy and multimodal approaches. Serpico projects relied partially on the advances of these instrumental projects and a positive synergy was established.
