Imageomics 2025 All-hands Meeting
The Imageomics Institute’s All-Hands Meeting and NextGen Day occurring between April 16-18, 2025, plays a key role in shaping the future of the emerging field of imageomics. We welcome our collaborators and broader community to engage over the two event as your voice and expertise are essential as...
Images as the source of information about life
Biologists must analyze traits in order to understand the significance of patterns in the two billion-year evolutionary history of life and to predict future effects of environmental change or genetic manipulation. Images are by far the most abundant source of documentation of life on the planet—but traits of organisms cannot be readily extracted from them.
The question: How do we take hundreds of thousands of images and use them to answer fundamental biological questions about ecology and evolution? At the very least, how do we extract traits, such as the example of a bird guide?
The answer: We make traits computable. Biology meets machine learning and vice versa.
