Seeing the Unseen: How Deep Learning Unlocks Hidden Medical Image Data

Join us for networking and a presentation from Adele Peskin, computer scientist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Adele has been using machine learning techniques to extract medical data from images where other numerical techniques do not work. At NIST, convolutional neural networks are used to process many different types of medical data. Adele will show the results of improving very low field noisy MRI images for medical diagnosis and extracting complex 4-D image features in early tumor detection.

Please note: this session there will be a change in venue!

Uplight, a local software company located in the Boulder Commons, will be hosting the event. Someone will meet you at the lobby door of 2490 Junction Pl (next to Logan's Espresso Cafe) and show you up to the office space. Please arrive no later than 5:45pm. There is pay parking on the street in front of the building and some free parking in the neighborhood.

5:30 Meet and greet
5:45 Presentation
Networking to follow. Light snacks will be provided.

Looking forward to seeing you and growing our community of women interested in data science!

Your co-hosts,
Meghan Sloan and Jo Martinez
