Got Images?

Dear Colleague,

Won’t you help us build a new valuable resource for researchers, students, and the public?

The Cell: An Image Library™ is a new research-, reference-, and education-focused cell image, video, and animation repository. An open-access resource for peer-reviewed images and their raw data, The Cell will help researchers share and archive their data. It will create a common file format for use by all. And its growing contents will be easy to search.

With your images—published and unpublished, we can further discovery and education.

The Cell: An Image Library™ is now accepting images for annotation and publication. We seek data from all organisms, cell types, microscopy modalities, and disease states. Uploading images is easy and will only take a few minutes. Our annotators peer review each unpublished image, and contributors will be acknowledged on the website. The Cell’s contents can be cited in articles; contributions can be noted on CVs.

Won’t you help your community?

Visit http://www.cellimagelibrary.org/pages/contribute for instructions and the link to submit your image data. Please see http://www.cellimagelibrary.org/pages/license for information about licensing options. Raw data as well as data with limited processing will be the most valuable. We accept images from 105 different formats. Thank you in advance for your contributions. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email ASCB Manager, Image Library, David Orloff at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Timothy J. Mitchison Caroline Kane Joan R. Goldberg
