Developing dynamic imaging and analysis methods.
Dr Dominic Waithe
Dominic is a UKRI Innovation Fellow with the MRC Centre for Computational Biology and the Wolfson Imaging Centre at the MRC Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Oxford, UK. In his current position he applies biophysics, machine learning and computer vision techniques to develop novel microscopy based dynamic acquisition pipelines. His background includes degrees from University College London in biotechnology, molecular neuroscience and computer science. He has performed post-doctorate research in the field of molecular neuroscience as well as in applied microscopy and image analysis. Prior to his present position, he worked for 4 years in the Wolfson Imaging Centre Oxford (https://www.imm.ox.ac.uk/research/facilities/wolfson-imaging-centre) working closely with the group of Christian Eggeling (http://www.nano-immunology.org/), developing novel bioimage analysis and correlation techniques.
Dominic regularly teaches image processing and analysis courses and co-organises image analysis lectures for the Doctoral Training Centre, Oxford (http://www.dtc.ox.ac.uk/).
Dominic is the acting chair of the Image Analysis Focused Interest Group of the Royal Microscopical Society (http://iafig-rms.org/) and is also on the UK management team for Neubias (http://eubias.org/NEUBIAS/).
