The > goal will be for developers in this area, both established as well as > students/postdocs to discuss the detailed algorithms and methodologies in > this field in greater technical detail than is possible at more general > meetings like the GRC. The central premise is that gaining a comprehensive > and quantitative understanding of highly sophisticated machines, complexes, > and organelles of the cell requires the active, timely and coordinated > development of complementary image analysis and data mining algorithm and > approaches. We have recruited an outstanding panel of speakers; including an > outstanding keynote speaker and the leading algorithm developers in the field > (http://ncmi.bcm.edu/ncmi/events/workshops/workshops_139/workshop_schedule_html > ). > > Sessions: > > * Map Validation > * Single Particle Approaches to Helical Symmetry and 2-D Crystals > * Direct Detector Movie Processing > * Tomogram Segmentation, Annotation and Filtration > * Factors Limiting Resolution in Single Particle Analysis/Tomography > * Heterogeneous Data in 2-D and 3-D > > All session will focus on interactive discussions with plenty of time for > questions. We will also have a poster session, and selected posters will be > invited to give short-format talks. > > _____________________ > Dorit Hanein, PhD >
