FIJI Workshop resources

FIJI/Image J is a freeware that can be used for the Visualisation & Quantification of digital images. This workshop series is split into two sections around those two functions.

FIJI for Beginners: Aims to provide new users with an introduction into FIJI. This workshop includes details on how to import data, change colours, split/merge images, add scale bars and present 2D & 3D datasets for presentations/publications.

FIJI for Quantification: Aims to provide an overview of the quantitative functions available within FIJI. Using real-life examples to show researchers the step-by-step functions required to extract the quantitative information from their images.

FIJI Macro writing for Biologists: Aims to provide advanced FIJI users with the understanding and tools to perform more complicated batch analyses and custom data logging.

The below workshop content includes presentations pdfs, demo data, workshop recordings and short instructional videos of all hands-on examples.

If you have any queries regarding FIJI analyses or the workshops then please contact BOMP.

We would like to thank Cameron Nowell (Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences) for allowing us to use content from his FIJI manual. Further instruction manuals, including the one developed by Cameron Nowell, are available via the FIJI website

  • This workshop covers how to use FIJI to open, visualise and modify your fluorescence images. The workshop is split into two sections:

    1) Fundamentals of Digital Imaging: Provides an overview of the how the digital image is generated and how to image correctly using a microscope

    2) Activity Session: Provides a demonstration of how to open, visualise and modify your fluorescence images. You can download the demo data and work through the presentation pdf or watch the instructional videos
