MoBIE enables modern microscopy with massive data sets

MoBIE, the new user-friendly, freely available tool developed by researchers, allows scientists to generate high resolution images of cells combined with multiple layers of information, such as genetic expression profiles, and view it from different angles, as shown by this view of a small worm, Platynereis dumerilii.

The visualization, analysis and dissemination of such large imaging data sets poses significant challenges. Now, these tasks can be carried out using MoBIE, which stands for Multimodal Big Image Data Exploration, a new user-friendly, freely available tool developed by researchers from the University of Göttingen and EMBL Heidelberg. This means that researchers such as biologists, who rely on high-resolution microscopy techniques, can incorporate multiple data sets to study the processes of life at the very smallest scales.
