Hope everyone is enjoying the #weekend !Continuing with my busy #saturday… the 6 year old is off to his dads so I’m off to the Northcotte theatre at #exeteruniversity with my 21 year old daughter to watch the #opera (never been to one before, not sure what to expect 😬). This is the joy of having a 15 year age gap between kids! Soft play and park in the morning, opera in the evening, never a dull moment!! 🤔😆

@DrK Hello and nice to meet you! I work on a deep learning algorithm that quantifies blood, swelling, and CSF in ICH patients' CT scans.
Your experience reminded me of this dataset. It has genetic and imaging data for Alzheimer's patients.

@DrK yes! it's fun watching the different communities come in at different times. #bioinformatics and #nlproc ppl were here when I got here. Then the #medicalimaging ppl started coming and now there's a #sportsanalytics community. It's great to see

#introduction
Hello! I work on computer vision as it applies to medical imaging. I'm especially interested in neuro imaging.
I fill my free time with soccer and soccer data and I maintain a #python package, ScrapeFC, https://github.com/oseymour/ScraperFC.
I'm glad to be here and looking forward to meeting everybody!
@oseymour brilliant, thanks! This place is great isn’t it?! 🤩
@oseymour Hello! Great to meet you! So nice to start seeing some #medicalimaging folks in my network! #AI in medical imaging is an area of interest in the research group I’m joining soon and something I’m hoping to learn more about! Thanks for the link to the dataset, that looks really interesting!

Shamelessly hopping on the #introduction bandwagon: Hi, I'm Ian. I'm a science communicator and space writer working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California as a media relations specialist. Space robot PR, basically. In a past life, I was a solar physicist. I love science fiction in all its forms and have a passion for #astrophysics, #astronomy and all things #space. When not typing, you'll likely find me at the #gym, #running in the hills, or at the pub with a G&T.
@Ruthoneale you’re lucky! I have a 21 year old and a 6 year so I feel like I’ve spent my life doing soft play! 😆
@bluehazy thanks! Survived soft play, just got the park to face later 😬😆

For all the #MedMastodon folks over here, I vote for #MediFedi as a hashtag. We will be embracing those from every instance & the very spirit of this platform. Many of us are not on med-mastodon, but all of us are part of the fediverse! Really want to connect with all medics, Sports Medics, Nurses, ACPs, Pharmacists, Physios, & anyone interested in any medical field. I learned hugely from you over on the bird site! 🙌🏻
