Hi all,

I'm interested in contributing to scikit-image but I am new to scientific programming. I studied physics in undergrad and have a minor in bioinformatics. As a result, I'm familiar with oop, data structures, and algorithms. I'd like some mentorship to get started on actually developing / contributing code. I'm interested in image processing for structural biology applications, and sometimes in my spare time I write scripts for my current company. However, it is not production-grade, and it is quite hacky. I'm hoping that through contributing to scikit-image, in whatever way possible, I can gain some skills and give back in parallel.

According to the scikit-image website, mentoring is available and it seems like contributing to open source is encouraged. Would anyone be interested in mentoring me?

Thank you for your time,

Brandon Read
