Instruct Image Processing Center (I2PC)
The Instruct Image Processing Center (I2PC) at the CNB-CSIC is, within Instruct, the European Reference Center for infrastructure provision in Image Processing in Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-ray Microscopy. It provides support to structural biologists, helping them to maximize the extraction of biological knowledge from their microscopy images. To this end it provides support and training in the use of image processing software, as well as developing software and all related activities oriented towards the standardization, simplification and reliability of the image processing tasks. The estimation time for each project is two weeks.
I2PC is currently available for remote access only due to COVID-19 restrictions. For information on the availability of specific technologies, view the Technology Availability List or contact support@instruct-eric.eu. Please check here regularly for updates.
How to find us
By car: The University Campus is at the Km. 15 of the Colmenar road (M-607, Ctra. Colmenar Viejo, Km. 15). I2PC at the University Campus
By public transportation: You can reach the University Campus from Madrid either by bus (line 714 from Plaza de Castilla) or by train (line C4 and C10 from Atocha, Sol, Nuevos Ministerios or Chamartin railway stations).
You can find more information on the university website. In the map of the campus, the National Center of Biotechnology is located at the building number 18.
This platform will provide personalised support to Instruct projects requiring specialised processing of either electron or X-ray microscopy images. It will also help developers in integrating their methods into generally accessible analysis workflows. The Instruct Image Processing Centre (I2PC) in Madrid will assign personnel to this analysis, as well as the required computational resources.
