Jason Swedlow: Metadata in BioImaging: Management, Organization, and Sharing BioImaging Data

In order to understand an image of a biological sample and what it represents, one needs to understand its metadata. Metadata is the information behind the image that shows the experimental procedure, image acquisition settings, and the analysis performed on the data in order to obtain the represented image. Dr. Jason Swedlow explains what constitutes image metadata, and provides examples on how to catalog, organize, analyze, and share the metadata of biological images.
