The University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras is awarded a grant to support participation in an "Ideas Lab" workshop focused on innovations in biological imaging and visualization. Modern biological research is increasingly enabled and empowered by enhanced imaging technologies. Very high-resolution microscopy systems to continental-scale imaging platforms combined with high-throughput data streams produce an enormous challenge for research involving image-based data. The outcomes of this workshop are aimed at addressing and improving our ability to analyze, interpret, compare, and represent biological image data for dissemination or meta-analysis. A range of interdisciplinary scientists will be invited to participate. Participants will be selected on the basis of preliminary proposals describing their interests, experience, and expectations that attend the formation of collaborative research teams at the Ideas Lab. The interdisciplinary, collaborative, and immersive workshop is expected to result in the formulation of project ideas that address challenges of using image-based data in biological research. After the Ideas Lab, selected project ideas will be invited to submit full proposals to the National Science Foundation.Substantial efforts are directed towards the constitution of a participant group with diversified interests, expertise, affiliations, and demographics to ensure the greatest potential for identifying appropriate image processing challenges and creative project prospective for solving the challenges. The utility to a broader community of researchers has transformative potential to increase the rate of data analysis, synthesis, and dissemination that make image based data broadly useful. Positive impacts on research are coupled to societal benefit of enhanced and accelerated research programs. In addition, the opportunities for undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral training during the conduct of the projects identified at the Ideas Lab workshop will help to foster the generation of a broadly trained cadre of interdisciplinary scientists able to apply their expertise across multiple fields of inquiry.

波多黎各大学，里约皮德拉斯被授予赠款，以支持在“思想实验室”研讨会的重点是在生物成像和可视化的创新参与。 现代生物学研究越来越多地通过增强的成像技术来实现和授权。 非常高分辨率的显微镜系统，以大陆规模的成像平台结合高通量的数据流产生了巨大的挑战，研究涉及基于图像的数据。 本次研讨会的成果旨在解决和提高我们分析，解释，比较和代表生物图像数据的传播或荟萃分析的能力。 将邀请一系列跨学科科学家参加。参与者将根据描述他们的兴趣，经验和期望的初步建议来选择，这些建议将参加Ideas Lab合作研究团队的形成。 跨学科，协作和沉浸式研讨会预计将导致项目想法的制定，以解决在生物研究中使用基于图像的数据的挑战。 在创意实验室之后，将邀请选定的项目创意向国家科学基金会提交完整的提案。大量的努力是为了建立一个具有多样化兴趣，专业知识，从属关系和人口统计的参与者群体，以确保最大的潜力来识别适当的图像处理挑战和解决挑战的创意项目前景。对更广泛的研究人员社区的效用具有变革性的潜力，可以提高数据分析、合成和传播的速度，使基于图像的数据广泛有用。 对研究的积极影响与加强和加速研究计划的社会效益相结合。 此外，在Ideas Lab研讨会上确定的项目进行期间，本科生，研究生和博士后培训的机会将有助于培养一支训练有素的跨学科科学家骨干队伍，能够在多个调查领域应用他们的专业知识。
