Her team works with dozens of biologist collaborators annually to help them create image analysis workflows. They also make the open-source image analysis software tools CellProfiler, Piximi, and Bilayers.
In 2024, Cimini was named a Kavli Fellow by the National Academy of Sciences as well as a Broad Institute Next Generation awardee. She has also been awarded the Alan B. Smith Mentor of the Year Award from the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities and BioImaging North America's inaugural Michael W. Davidson Award for community contributions, including the creation of the world's first postdoctoral training program in bioimage analysis.
Cimini’s lab started at the Broad in 2021, after 5 years as a postdoc then computational biologist in Anne Carpenter’s lab at the Broad Institute.
