Learning Opportunities

Monthly Seminars

A regular seminar series began in February 2018, and includes 1) seminars describing technical developments in ML with potential biomedical applications, 2) seminars by local or external Radiology researchers, describing problems that may benefit from ML approaches and ongoing projects involving ML techniques, and 3) seminars by biomedical researchers (not in Radiology), describing pioneering experiences applying ML in their fields of study. The seminar location will alternate between ECB/WID and SMPH/WIMR. These seminars will also provide an opportunity for UW researchers to become familiar with researchers “on the other side of campus.” Recordings of past seminars are available on our MediaSpace Channel (UW NetID required).

Summer Bootcamps

ML4MI  hosts bootcamps with the goal of giving participants a rapid, hands-on introduction into the principles and application of machine learning for medical imaging. This bootcamp is supported by the Grainger Institute of Engineering and the Departments of Radiology and Medical Physics. These bootcamps cover the basics of machine learning and applications for image segmentation, classification, and reconstruction. Please sign up for updates for information on future bootcamps! The source material is also available for self study.
