How to get more pixels when you export Powerpoint slides to graphic files
Getting around Microsoft's limitations to export high quality graphics from Powerpoint is not too hard once you know how. -
Prettier graphs using Excel
Excel excels at ugly graphs, However it can produce nice graphs if you know how. It takes a little thought, and a little effort to transform the default graphs, setting sizes, spacing, colours, fonts, formats, but once you are familiar, it takes little time, and once you have a nice format you can even re-use the graph format in different projects - all you need to do is point it to different data sets.renfreeshawlab.science.unimelb.edu.au/2017/03/01/prettier-graphs-using-excel

Loading sets of images into powerpoint slides
Sometimes one may want to generate a PowerPoint slide with a set of images - for example a set of micrograph images to discuss with your colleagues (or a lovely set of your holiday photos to make your friends jealous). You can do this by manually adding each image, one by one, then resizing, repositioning, formatting .... , but there is a much quicker way. Here is a guide to automating the process.renfreeshawlab.science.unimelb.edu.au/2016/10/08/loading-sets-of-images-into-powerpoint-slides

Fluorescence Images: Merging and optimising
If you are using fluorescence microscopy you may need to merge images taken with different filter sets - for example DAPI to pick out nuclei together with fluorescent staining with or or more specific antibodies. Commonly you will want to merge these images into a composite. Image optimisation and merging can be achieved easily using the free Fiji package with ImageJ.renfreeshawlab.science.unimelb.edu.au/2016/08/20/fluorescence-images-merging-and-optimising-2
