Associate Director for Bioimage Analysis
Broad Institute, Massachusetts, United States
Dr. Beth Cimini is the Associate Director for Bioimage Analysis and a CZI Imaging Scientist in the Imaging Platform at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, MA. She obtained a PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology with Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn at UCSF, studying splicing variants of the telomere master scaffolding protein TIN2. This work honed her interests in image analysis, leading her to postdoctoral and staff scientist roles with Dr. Anne Carpenter's lab at the Broad, leading a team collaborating with ~30 outside scientists per year on custom image analysis projects. The Cimini lab focuses on bioimage analysis tool creation (Piximi) and maintenance (CellProfiler), as well as on applying open source tools to novel biological problems. She created and directs the Platform's Postdoctoral Training Program in Bioimage Analysis, and also leads the Broad efforts on community engagement and technology development for the Center for Open Bioimage Analysis (COBA).
