The practical course “Image Data Presentation” is designed to explore the processing of scientific images, especially microscopic data, for presentation, mainly in scientific journals.
What Will We Learn?
• Understanding Image Quality: What are the standards for high-quality scientific images? How do we define this quality?
• Differences in Image Data: What distinguishes images meant for analysis from those intended for presentation?
• Tools and Software: How we can use the Adobe suite or viable freeware alternatives?
• Image Formats and Compression: Which formats are best for scientific presentation? Can we compress these images without losing quality?
Course Structure: This course will combine lectures and practical sessions. We will use real examples using different softwares (Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, GIMP, Inkscape).
Additionally, we will briefly discuss quick finalization and data export formats for presentation using Fiji ImageJ. We’ll also compare text input in MS Word and LaTeX.
