Michael Mckay is an Image Analyst in the Bioimage Analysis Core (BAC) of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI). His primary focus is on spatial proteomics, where he helps research scientists turn complex, multiplex imaging data into meaningful biological insights, particularly in the context of cancer and immune-related diseases. He works extensively with Python for machine learning, deep learning, and image processing, and integrates other programming languages as needed for analysis. He also uses tools like QuPath and Nextflow, where he develops and maintains pipelines for multiplex image analysis
