VISFILES VisBio: A Biological Tool for Visualization and Analysis I am not a faculty member, so I do not supervise students. But I do hire programmers and have had the pleasure of giving several their first programming jobs. For example, Brian Paul started with me and went on to write Mesa, the open source implementation of OpenGL, and has become a leader of the OpenGL community. My most recent young star was Curtis Rueden. He is now developing a biology visualization system named VisBio, so I have asked him to submit this VisFiles column about his work. Bill Hibbard ¢ Share algorithms, both for their straightforward use and as starting points for new algorithms. This requires algorithm portability and algorithms based on data models that support data from a wide community of scientists. ¢ Provide a flexible environment for identifying and tracking biological structures in specific sets of microscopic observations, and for linking them to other analyses. Again, this requires algorithm portability and a general data model. Because many different types of scientists desire such tools, the search for an effective environment for handling these data analysis problems has engaged not just the biological community, but the
