<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hi All-<div><br></div><div>Just a reminder of what we are doing, and what you can look forward to:</div><div><br></div><div>In October, we'll release OMERO 4.1. This system will support import and visualization of HCS (or what we call ScreenPlateWell, 'SPW') data. We'll support the Opera, MIAS, InCell1000 file formats. Furtehr formats can be supported in the future-- we need data from the community.</div><div><br></div><div>We've started building the tools we all need for data analysis. That includes Matlab interfaces, some example analysis in Matlab. We will migrate our support for CellProfiler to Python, once their work is released. We have new facilities for definitions for ROIs and storing data that we are building now. The Matlab interface will be in OMERO 4.1; new data analysis models will not be supported in 4.1, but you should see these coming in the following releases.</div><div><br></div><div>OMERO.fs functions as a dropbox in 4.1-- it automatically imports a defined set of file types from a specific directory. But the import model stays the same-- binary data is copied into the OMERO repository. The good news is that this is much faster than in OMERO 4.0.x. We are revising our spec for OMERO.fs functionality to eliminate data duplication. We'll update you on this as it develops.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>Jason</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 25 Sep 2009, at 20:52, Ghislain Bonamy wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div>Dear all,<br><br>I wanted to find users of OMERO who use this database solution for High Content Imaging for any of the following instruments:<br><br>1) Opera<br>2) Acumen Explorer<br>3) Image Xpress Ultra (or MDS database MDCSTORE).<br><br>With the upcoming of the new version of OMERO, and more particularly OMERO.fs (and the support of more file format for HCI), we are seriously considering centralizing our images into a single repository with OMERO.<br><br>If this is a task that you are already working on or interested in, please drop me a line.<br><br>Best,<br><br>Ghislain Bonamy, PhD<br>__________________________________________<br>Research Investigator<br><br>Genomic Institute of the<br>Novartis Research<br>Foundation<br>Department of Informatics, room C117<br>10675 John Jay Hopkins Drive<br>San Diego CA 92121<br>USA<br><br>+1 (858) 812-1534<br><a href="http://www.gnf.org">www.gnf.org</a> <br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>ome-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:ome-users@lists.openmicroscopy.org.uk">ome-users@lists.openmicroscopy.org.uk</a><br>http://lists.openmicroscopy.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/ome-users<br></div></blockquote></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">**************************</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">Wellcome Trust Centre for Gene Regulation & Expression</font></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">College of Life Sciences</font></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">MSI/WTB/JBC Complex</font></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">University of Dundee</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">Dow Street</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">Dundee DD1 5EH</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">United Kingdom</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><br style="font-family: Helvetica; "></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">phone (01382) 385819</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">Intl phone: 44 1382 385819 </span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">FAX (01382) 388072 </span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">email: <a href="mailto:jason@lifesci.dundee.ac.uk">jason@lifesci.dundee.ac.uk</a></span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><br style="font-family: Helvetica; "></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">Lab Page: <a href="http://www.dundee.ac.uk/lifesciences/swedlow/">http://www.dundee.ac.uk/lifesciences/swedlow/</a></span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">Open Microscopy Environment: <a href="http://openmicroscopy.org">http://openmicroscopy.org</a></span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">**************************</span></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div style="font-family: Helvetica; "><div>The University of Dundee is a Scottish Registered Charity, No. SC015096.</div></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"> </div><br></div></body></html>
