On Wednesday, October 2, 2024, I attended the 3rd annual Digital Pathology and AI showcase event titled "Digital Pathology Algorithms (DP and AI): Are we looking at the patient journey?", sponsored by Roche Diagnostics UK and Ireland. The event was an insightful exploration of how digital pathology and AI algorithms are transforming healthcare, with a particular focus on improving the patient journey. Read More

ECP, Florence, another great opportunity to mix networking, work and sightseeing in a jam-packed week. “Unfortunately” there were no direct flights to Florence from Birmingham. This therefore required me to travel to Florence via Pisa the day before the conference. This allowed me to visit the iconic leaning tower, which certainly didn’t fail to impress. From there, it was a scenic 50-minute journey on a double-decker train to Florence. Read MoreLink opens in a new window

The TIA Centre at Warwick University hosted a group of 3 high school students who attended the University for a two-week summer placement. During this two week period, the students engaged in computational experiments utilising artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and localise cell nuclei in digitised images of human, plant and animal tissue.
