Innovation Communities – upcoming events

Next week, two innovation community events are taking place, based on Imaging and Visualisation and Robotics and AI.

These events are open to all who work with or have an interest in the topic. Lunch and refreshments will be served.

 Find out more and register below.  

  • Imaging and Visualisation – Monday 28 October, featuring talks on Imaging Life on Earth, the Data Visualisation Observatory and Medical Image Analysis
