Aims

This international workshop aims to bring together:

  • mathematicians who design new methods and find theories
  • computer scientists to lead latest AI developments
  • bio-scientists and engineers who lead imaging work in applications
  • industrialists who lead imaging work for products and medicine development

to provide a unique opportunity to gain specialist knowledge and some practical experience in this evolving field, in which new or outstanding problems are tackled and more theories are found to explain various successes. By sharing knowledge and exchanging ideas, much can be gained from the networking and knowledge-building opportunities for professionals and researchers working in the exciting field, to better prepare us for emerging challenges from NHS and industries alike.
