@florianjug and Anna Kreshuk now give an overview of all the accomplishments of the project in the past 2 years, looking forward to hearing more in the demos and updates from the project partners!

The AI4Life General Assembly starts with John Eriksson, Director General of @EuroBioImaging giving perspective on how AI4Life fits into the European Research Area

Is it just me, or did the #AI4Life Hackathon in Milan just double the brainpower? 👯‍♂️ #SeeingDouble #TechMagic

Now gearing up for the General Assembly starting on Monday! 🚀

🏆 The AI4Life Denoising Challenge has officially ended! Check out the results and winning algorithms tackling 4 different microscopy noise problems. Congrats to all the participants for their contributions! Read more here:

After a day and a half of #ImageAnalysis in the cloud with #dask by the IDR team, Damian Dalle Nogare takes over a practical session to apply several #AI models for cell segmentation using #Cellpose

Day 3 wraps up with a technical session by Craig Russell, exploring the core concepts of #NeuralNetworks and applying them in practice with PyTorch.

Check out the tutorial: https://github.com/ctr26/pytorch_tutorial

@gomez_mariscal leads a practical session, demonstrating segmentation using StarDist running locally using #DL4MicEverywhere and @Docker

Wei Ouyang has introduced the ecosystem built around @bioimageio within AI4Life, including Hypha, BioEngine, the @bioimageio ChatBot... at the Microscopy data analysis@EBItraining course

Dominik Kutra from the ilastik team is guiding a practical session on using ilastik for #ImageAnalysis tasks during the EBI course microscopy data analysis. His top tip: For any #ImageAnalysis questions, be sure to check out image.sc! 🖥️🔬

Day 3 of the EBI training virtual course "Microscopy data analysis: ML and the BioImage Archive" is dedicated to AI4Life 🦒. We start with Anna Kreshuk lecturing on Ilastik and bioimage.io. She highlights the need to have a shared format for models understood by all tools

Did you know that EMBL-EBI hosts several bioimaging resources? BioImage Archive, BioStudies and EMPIAR are now being presented by Matthew Hartley, Craig Russell, Ugis Sarkans and Awais Athar in the Microscopy Data Analysis course
