AI4Life News

March 2023

Welcome to the first AI4Life newsletter! In this first edition, we are happy to announce the launch of the First AI4Life Open Call, an opportunity designed to provide support with Deep Learning to life scientists with unmet image analysis needs. We also feature the latest news and events in which AI4Life was actively participating as well as the open positions to work in the project.

We look forward to continuing our work in AI4Life and we thank you for your interest and support!

Announcement

With this Open Call, we want to reach out to life scientists that need help to improve their image analysis workflows, data, training data creation or simply need some consultancy on the tools to use. A team of experts from AI4Life will collaborate with the successful applicants for 6 months.

To answer possible questions and assist you in the application process, we are hosting a Q&A session on March 20th at 4 pm CET. Join us! https://bit.ly/oc-ask-us-anything

In case you can't make it, check out our video where some of the frequently asked questions are addressed.
