Registration and Training Process - Analysis

This page explains on how to gain access to BOMP Image analysis computers or software.

Once you have your microscopy images or at the experimental planning stage,  we can help you further on image processing, visualisation and quantification.

You can start learning the basics using our online resources, or request additional training/consultation on image analysis.

Consultation session is free of charge as this will be done as a collaboration basis.

Step 1 Consult with BOMP staff
  • Please contact BOMP staff (bomp-enquiries@unimelb.edu.au) for initial consultation.
  • We will discuss your image analysis workflow.
  • For new students,  their supervisor should join this session.
Step 2 Register to booking system (iLab)
  • Every instrument booking and training registration will be done via iLab.
  • Both you and your supervisor should register to iLab.
  • See here for instruction.
Step 3 Instrument training form
  • BOMP staff will initiate the training request form.
  • Complete and submit the Training registration form in iLab.
Step 4 Arrange training session
  • Once the form has been submitted, BOMP staff will check it and arrange training sessions. If any form is incomplete, we will contact you for more details before booking a training session.
Step 5 Training
  • Analysis software training  is done as a single session. This may be done as
    • local induction for the analysis computer only (30 min)
    • or local induction + software induction (2 hours)
    • or general consultation (1 hours)
Step 6 Competency verification
  • If we have deemed you competent, we will give you an independent access to the booking calendar and finalise training steps (e.g. add to mailing list etc).
