Beautiful, great work @phrn.org.au team!
This week, we're hosting the #EuroBioImaging All Hands Nodes Meeting at @embl.org Heidelberg! Yesterday we focused on #imaging technologies with Nodes & industry board partners. Today we explore international collaboration with @micro-au.bsky.social @globalbioimaging.bsky.social & much more to come!
Great opportunity to explore @ai4life.bsky.social's FAIR, open, community-driven repository of pre-trained AI models for image analysis, along with lessons learnt.
