finding the right wording, get list of existing tools, what is possible to do automatically, finding  the right people to contact for collaborations/questions
A usual approach for biologists starting in bioimaging for a given application is to start with software state of the art and look for an existing tools exactly solving the targeted problem. It is likely that some tools may come close to that but also that other tools developed for other bioimaging question may also serve. Bise may help in such a situation. For instance a query on Microtubule will, with maximum relevance, point to   Microtubule Length Analysis, Tracking of Microtububule Tips, Microtubules Tool (3D), but also, with smaller relevance BISE will point toward tools developed for other biological communities such as Simple Neurite Tracer. This illustrates the possibility to bridge biological communities through BISE by pointing tools of wide applicability.
Remark TODO:  tools based on morphological similarity should also be included, e.g. tubeness and vesselness should also be pointed.= sghape based description
Now let’s imagine a biologist interested in extracting Micro vessels
10 april 2018 Bise’s answers: Blood vessel segmentation and network analysis, Lymphatic Vessel Density calculation, MTK: Vascular Modeling Toolkit … again with correct with maximum relevance but surely not fully exhaustive given the huge effort paid by the biomedical community on this and not represented so far that much in NEUBIAS.
Here also some tools developed for other biological communities (again Simple Neurite Tracer). This further illustrates the possibility to address the Babel tower issue…. but with still long way to go. Interestingly in this case Tubeness is in the set of answers.
Remark TODO : Concerning the possibility to find the right people. There is the possibility to contact the author of the tools but some of them are surely not in the game anymore. Would be important to point the user of BISE toward expert in the NEUBIAS network with interest in the biological problem and expertise in the bioimage analysis.
Remark : A snapshot on this could be reused with the filament tracing (6 Figures only are required for the Article).

5.3 Analysts

fill the gap between a technical/methods paper and its implementation (complements the information from the method paper), get standardized and quality information about the tools, find out what the needs of the biologists are (from comments and feedback left by those); diffuse his/her own unpublished tools/workflows; place to point biologists to when they ask for help
Examples:
Could there be a table of information versus use cases?

concrete implementation of a previously published method|algorithm
etc.

5.4 Stake holders

(‘a person with an interest or concern in something’) : 1)  A single point of entry to the community from outside. A display of achievement/deliverable. Uses: bibliometry/tracking.  2) Toward reproducible science (aka FAIR, +dataset +containers) 3) image analysis from other field (satellite imaging, astronomy, materials etc....)

6. A central hub for documentation and discussion of and links to code
