Ron Kikinis – Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School, Professor of Medical Image Computing at University Bremen, and Director of Fraunhofer MEVIS – has been selected as a recipient of the 2019 A. Clifford Barger Excellence in Mentoring Award at Harvard Medical School (HMS).

The third meeting of the artificial intelligence cluster BREMEN.AI will take place this evening in the premises of Fraunhofer MEVIS and in the labs of the Institute for Artificial Intelligence at the University Bremen.

Artificial intelligence and adaptive algorithms – in medicine, these are gaining increasing importance. Speaker programs at international conventions also reflect this trend by focusing more and more on possible applications of this new technology. One example is the Medical Imaging conference hosted by the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE), which will take place in San Diego, California, from February 16 to 21. At this renowned convention, the Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Medicine MEVIS will be represented by a number of experts who will provide insight into deep learning.

The second year in a row, the work of Fraunhofer MEVIS was recognized by the scientific documentary industry at the Raw Science Film Festival held on January 26 in Los Angeles, CA.
