Contributing to Scikit-Image and Mentorship
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
Hi Brandon, Thank you for your interest! What's your GitHub handle, please? Alternatively, do you have a company or personal web page showcasing your current or past projects? Thank you, Marianne On Wed, May 26, 2021 at 8:23 AM BRANDON READ <bread1@ucla.edu> wrote:

Hello Marianne, My handle is 'beeread'; however, I haven't made any personal projects. You probably won't find much, if anything, on my profile. The scripting work I've done for my company is small-scale and has never surpassed 1000 lines of code. The largest project I worked on involved using OpenCV to do basic image processing on our electron microscope micrographs. I cannot legally share any of this work. These disappointing facts motivate my outreach - I'd like to start developing a public portfolio of projects that I can eventually showcase to apply to jobs such as ( https://www.gene.com/careers/detail/202104-110437/cryoEM-Senior-Scientific-R... ).

Hi all! Brandon, my name is Gus, I'm a materials science PhD student. I have not yet contributed to scikit-image, but I would like to start, and Marianne has recently been so kind as to start showing me some of the associated ropes with contributing. I'm happy to pass on some of the Git/GitHub/version control/general best practices that she has passed on to me. Perhaps we could start tackling a few issues together or in parallel for support? I was also talking to Marianne about working on a demo for the gallery, so this is also something that the three of us (and anyone else interested in this mailing list) can work on together. I am a bit busy with work at the moment trying to get a paper done before an early June deadline, but once that passes my schedule will open up! Feel free to follow up with me outside of this mailing list. Gus On Fri, May 28, 2021 at 2:41 PM Marianne Corvellec < marianne.corvellec@ens-lyon.org> wrote:

Hi Marianne, Brandon and Gus, I am Ayse Koksoy. I started working as an image and data analyst in Texas AM almost year ago. I know enough python and image analysis to barely keep my head above water. I am hoping I can be helpful; also I want to advance my skills in using scikit-image and python, and may be even contribute to scikit-image; I would love to be a part of this journey, My GitHub is https://github.com/ak1920 My linked is https://www.linkedin.com/in/ayseakoksoy/ Thank you, Ayse On May 28, 2021, 1:41 PM -0500, Marianne Corvellec <marianne.corvellec@ens-lyon.org>, wrote:

Marianne: Thank you for the ideas, Marianne! I've started checking out the good first issues. As I go through them, I'll get a better idea of what is best to get started on and go from there. I hope you don't mind me reaching out if I get *seriously* stuck on something. I really like your gallery idea, and it looks like both Gus and I want to pursue developing some sort of demonstration. Gus: Thank you for reaching out! Anything you're willing to show me I'd happily absorb. Likewise, if you have any project ideas already in mind for the gallery, I'd be happy to work with you on that. Ditto for the scikit issues list. I am currently in the middle of switching jobs, so your timeline works well for me. Ayse: Thank you for introducing yourself! I'm really happy to see others are interested too. *Maybe we can throw together some sort of Slack or Discord chat for our group?* If you're currently working on projects that I am capable enough to assist on, I'd be glad to. If anyone else wants to get in on the action, let us know. Thanks again y'all. On Sat, May 29, 2021 at 9:44 AM Ayse Koksoy <ayseakoksoy@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Brandon, Ayse, Please note that there is a scikit-image chat at https://skimage.zulipchat.com! That’s probably a nice place to chat about skimage projects, where the rest of the team will see the messages and can chime in if you get stuck. Either way, working in a small team on these things is a great idea. Juan.

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?

Dear Brandon, Ayse, and everyone, A scikit-image sprint is currently taking place at SciPy (online): https://hackmd.io/@7H8EgGG9TneLBrQ6Of7PUg/S1_QE2o6_ It's the perfect time and place to get mentorship! See you around, Marianne On Wed, Jun 2, 2021 at 3:31 PM Marianne Corvellec <marianne.corvellec@ens-lyon.org> wrote:
Dear all,
Thanks for chiming in and offering your help, Gus!
I second Juan in pointing you all to the scikit-image chat at https://skimage.zulipchat.com: Brandon, feel free to post there should you hit any roadblock; you can also write private messages to a small group of people.
See you on Zulip! Marianne

Hi Brandon, Ayse,
Please note that there is a scikit-image chat at https://skimage.zulipchat.com! That’s probably a nice place to chat about skimage projects, where the rest of the team will see the messages and can chime in if you get stuck. Either way, working in a small team on these things is a great idea.
Juan.

Marianne:
Thank you for the ideas, Marianne! I've started checking out the good first issues. As I go through them, I'll get a better idea of what is best to get started on and go from there. I hope you don't mind me reaching out if I get seriously stuck on something. I really like your gallery idea, and it looks like both Gus and I want to pursue developing some sort of demonstration.
Gus:
Thank you for reaching out! Anything you're willing to show me I'd happily absorb. Likewise, if you have any project ideas already in mind for the gallery, I'd be happy to work with you on that. Ditto for the scikit issues list. I am currently in the middle of switching jobs, so your timeline works well for me.
Ayse:
Thank you for introducing yourself! I'm really happy to see others are interested too. Maybe we can throw together some sort of Slack or Discord chat for our group? If you're currently working on projects that I am capable enough to assist on, I'd be glad to.
If anyone else wants to get in on the action, let us know. Thanks again y'all.

Hi Marianne, Brandon and Gus,
I am Ayse Koksoy. I started working as an image and data analyst in Texas AM almost year ago. I know enough python and image analysis to barely keep my head above water. I am hoping I can be helpful; also I want to advance my skills in using scikit-image and python, and may be even contribute to scikit-image; I would love to be a part of this journey,
My GitHub is https://github.com/ak1920 My linked is https://www.linkedin.com/in/ayseakoksoy/

Hi again Brandon,
No worries: You've got to start somewhere, right? Have you browsed through our 'good first issues' (https://github.com/scikit-image/scikit-image/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+l...
Which one(s) would you like to tackle? Otherwise, would you like to contribute a small demo to the gallery (https://scikit-image.org/docs/stable/auto_examples/)? Maybe you could recreate a microscopy application, even as a toy example version?
Cheers, Marianne

Hello Marianne,
My handle is 'beeread'; however, I haven't made any personal projects. You probably won't find much, if anything, on my profile.
The scripting work I've done for my company is small-scale and has never surpassed 1000 lines of code. The largest project I worked on involved using OpenCV to do basic image processing on our electron microscope micrographs. I cannot legally share any of this work.
These disappointing facts motivate my outreach - I'd like to start developing a public portfolio of projects that I can eventually showcase to apply to jobs such as (https://www.gene.com/careers/detail/202104-110437/cryoEM-Senior-Scientific-R...).
Thank you for your consideration, Brandon Read
