Welcome to the AI4Path Lab Journal Club! Our sessions happen every Monday and Wednesday from 10:00 to 11:00 AM Eastern Time (ET), chaired by senior researchers. We discuss the latest cutting-edge research in computational pathology and AI applications across various domains.
Each session features a presenter discussing an innovative paper, followed by an engaging discussion where members share insights, highlight strengths and weaknesses, and explore new ideas. This collaborative learning experience is invaluable for deepening understanding beyond just reading papers.
