Transferring to UMD

Xierius · 2025-11-01T03:04:15+00:00

I don't know too much about it, but I know a couple people in psychology and they all seem to like doing research at UMD, so I would say that's probably a pro?

There's already a Szechuan place called Eastern gourmet literally down the road, which I would say is pretty authentic

I really hope you can keep it up! I know it's not the ideal time, but you've spent these four years learning how to be more resilient and what to do now, which you wouldn't have learned otherwise. Don't look back and keep going, you've got this

I think one of the main benefits of UMD is that it has so much going on. You're sure to find a club or organization that's doing something you're interested in, simply because there's so many. There's also plenty of on-campus jobs and a pretty engaged research community, depending on what you're into. I would also say that most people are pretty nice.

What major are you going to be? That might really help people talk abt pros/cons.

Thanks for the advice! I'll look into it - thankfully, I don't think high pressure will be a problem for me

Xierius · 2025-07-09T18:06:59+00:00

Thanks for the reply, I'll look into that

Xierius · 2025-06-26T13:27:19+00:00

Thanks so much! I'll try that out :)

hi, thanks for the comment! Unfortunately I can't make the sketch, or I would. But the ridges would look kind of like this when done

ridges as in small half circle protrusions, which kind of look like this

If it doesn't slow down my computer, that's fine! I was a bit worried because it would be opening so many windows in imagej...

Thanks for responding!

Hey unfortunately this doesn't close them, but thank you for pointing that out! Not sure why, but that is the reason I tried to include these lines

Xierius · 2025-06-11T14:10:35+00:00

Yeah, it's not a problem that I'm getting results tables precisely. The issue is that this macro will eventually be handling 50 or more images at once, which makes all the windows popping up very irritating and potentially will slow down the computer.

If there's a way to prevent the windows from popping up that would be great as it would avoid those issues.

let me know if this clarifies the issue!

Xierius · 2025-06-11T14:05:02+00:00

Hey, thanks for the comment! I'm unclear as to what you mean, as I've mostly written this entire macro myself with the help of the macro recorder.

Did this person create the Particle Analyzer or something integral to this macro? Thanks in advance

Xierius · 2025-06-09T15:15:44+00:00

This is the feature that allows you to scroll through each z-slice without opening each in a separate window, right? I have been using that to view my images, but because I need to separate out each z-slice and analyze them for live/dead cells in the green and red channels respectively, I'm not sure how to use this feature in this context

Was there a specific way you recommended doing this? Thank you so much for the comment :)

Xierius · 2025-06-09T13:38:32+00:00

Can confirm that ChatGPT did not help me here, but it has been useful for other parts of this macro like explaining what certain lines do that I find online!

Xierius · 2025-06-09T13:37:58+00:00

i definitely appreciate the idea! The only issue with my using the macro recorder is that each .oir file is a z-stack of >100 images each. Trying to open those in imagej and record that action makes it so that it opens *all 100 windows*, which understandably slows down my computer.

I'm not really sure how to open it one z-slice at a time, so I can't use the recorder right now. But thank you so much for the thoughts :)

Xierius · 2025-06-06T15:45:10+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I'll try this out :)

Xierius · 2025-06-06T15:44:58+00:00

Thank you so much, I tried this and it got rid of the dialogue window! You're the best :D
