**RSVP via Meetup is mandatory to attend the event, due to limited capacity.** Talk & Play is a free event that provides the opportunity to game enthusiasts, players and makers to meet in a friendly, relaxed and safe environment.

Join our Women’s Circle at "Das Kabbalah Centre" in Berlin, hosted by Rachel Wende. Language: English. This event is open for new and current students. Amount: EUR 05.00 - 15.00 [Register here](https://onehouse.kabbalah.com/de/events/womens-circle_rw_24jun26-1779982577016386/) Living a purpose-driven life is something we all strive for. Such a life promises that we are using our talents, sharing of ourselves, and working towards goals that are fulfilling and inspiring. Staying on the path requires daily effort and yet, with all the responsibilities that we have as women, sometimes that purpose-driven life seems like a worthy goal for sometime after we’ve fulfilled the needs of our partners, children, and jobs. Join us for an intimate women’s circle as we share insights and tools for how to revitalize our search for our purpose. Learn how to get out of patterns and routines that keep us from making the changes we deeply desire. Our path to fulfillment lies within each of us; we only need to tease it out.

Bring your laptop! ​The session will last around 2 hours, followed by a networking session with dida and fellow AI enthusiasts (and free pizza!🍕). Bring your laptop! **​Abstract:** Nearly every cancer diagnosis still begins with a pathologist examining a stained tissue slide under a microscope. Digital pathology turns those slides into gigapixel images — and with them, a uniquely demanding frontier for machine learning. But getting from raw pixels to clinically meaningful, quantitative insight about a tumor and its microenvironment is far from trivial. ​In this workshop, Aignostics — a computational pathology company and Charité spin-off — walks you along the arc from core ML research to real-world application. We start with an overview of digital pathology and what makes it challenging for ML (gigapixel images, scarce labels, scanner and staining variability). We then look at how pathology foundation models are built and what separates a good one from a fragile one — not just accuracy, but robustness to non-biological artifacts — with a short hands-on segment. Finally, we put these models to work: with Atlas H&E-TME we profile the tumor microenvironment from routine H&E slides, and you'll get hands-on with OpenTME — an open dataset of TME profiles across five cancer types from TCGA — and TME Studio to run your own analyses. **⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡** **You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend.

**The Quiet Hour** is a two-and-a-half-hour guided journey for women — a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and experience the power of shared presence. **JUNE THEME: Sun & shadow** **You don't have to choose between the woman who shines and the woman who hides. This month, we're doing something different.** Instead of a guided meditation, we're moving through an active Osho meditation: shaking, dancing, sitting in stillness, lying in silence. It's followed by chakra sound healing, and closes in a sharing circle. The intention of The Quiet Hour is simple: to offer a space where you can pause, reconnect with yourself, and leave feeling more grounded, more understood, and more supported in your journey.

"Wer bin ich und wer bin ich mit dir? Wer bist du und was sehe ich in dir? Was könnte aus uns werden?" Ein empathischer Dialog. Grenzen wahrnehmen. Das Unbekannte erforschen. Alternative "Ich's" ausprobieren. Mit Neugier, mit Offenheit. Ein Raum für unsere Geschichten in Transformation. Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten. \*\*\* Ich bin: Joana (sie/ihr). Musikerin. Kulturwissenschaftlerin, mit literaturwissenschaftlichem Schwerpunkt. Seit Februar 2024 in Ausbildung als Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie. Durch diverse positive Erfahrungen als Teilnehmerin von (Schreib)kreisen für Frauen sowie mit großem Interesse besuchten Seminaren und Workshops offline und online, ist nun der Herzenswunsch entstanden, selbst auf lokaler Ebene - und in kreativer Gestalt - einen solchen Raum zu öffnen und leiten. Die amerikanische Sprecherin und Autorin Peggy Tabor Millin bringt meine eigenen Erlebnisse und Prozesse mit folgender Betrachtung auf den Punkt: "Wir müssen uns nicht selbst analysieren oder Erinnerungen hervorkramen oder an der Selbstverbesserung arbeiten. Wir müssen nur bereit sein zu lernen, wer wir sind und was die Tiefe unserer Seele wirklich ausdrücken will und muss. Während wir unser Schreiben in einem sicheren Kreis teilen, lernen wir, diesem Prozess und damit uns selbst zu vertrauen." \*\*\* Da die Plätze begrenzt sind, melde dich bitte an unter: transformativesschreiben@gmx.net \*\*\* Bitte mitbringen: \- Stift\(e\) und Papier oder eigenes Journal \- einen kleinen Gegenstand für den Kreis \(z\.B\. etwas aus der Natur oder von Bedeutung für dich in diesem Moment\) \- Warme Socken oder Hausschuhe \*\*\* Teilnahme auf Spendenbasis Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten.

This week we are discussing **Christopher Isherwood:** The Berlin Stories. Update 13.6.26: Please note that at today's meeting, we decided to focus only on the first novel from *Berlin Stories*, *Mr. Norris Changes Trains*. The second part will be back on the voting list and can be discussed in the near future. Update 24.06.26: I don't think we've ever had to update a meeting invitation before, and now here we are with the second update for the same one! Because of the intense heat, we're exceptionally meeting in the lounge of the Motel One on Prinzenstraße (right by the Moritzplatz U-Bahn station). They have air conditioning there! We look forward to seeing you! If you have book suggestions, would like to vote on our next reads, or join us for additional activities, please ask someone at the meeting to add you to our WhatsApp group. Just a heads up: **The cafe only accepts card payments for amounts over €10**, so you may want to bring some cash for smaller orders. **Also, if you're unable to attend, please update your RSVP so that someone from the waiting list can take your spot.**

Die Treffen finden hybrid statt, also online und vor Ort. Den Link für meinen digitalen Raum schicke ich am **Tag des Treffens** per Meetup-Mail an alle Teilnehmenden - schaut also bitte in euer Postfach bei Meetup! :-) Wir werden lesen, diskutieren, Erfahrungen austauschen, voneinander lernen und uns mit Themen kritisch auseinander setzen. Mitbringen braucht ihr nur das jeweilige Buch. Euch erwartet ein hoffentlich geselliger, inspirierender und unterhaltsamer Abend. **Zum 25.06. lesen wir "Girl vs. Girl. Wie Popkultur Frauen gegeneinander aufbringt" von Sophie Gilbert.** Ich freue mich auf euch!

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

Come join us for lunch together at Bendi Wok, one of my favorites!

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Evolve exists to provide a welcoming place for professional women to create an authentic community, deeper connections, and confident growth through networking and workshop events. No cliques, no judgement. **Shades of Sisterhood** is a space for women to grow from the inside out through meaningful conversations, personal development, mindset growth, and courageous self-awareness. These gatherings are designed to create deeper connection, expand perspective, and encourage women to become healthier, stronger, and more aligned versions of themselves — both personally and professionally. Through honest dialogue, shared experiences, and intentional conversations around identity, leadership, confidence, relationships, emotional resilience, and growth, women are invited into a supportive environment where they can learn, reflect, heal, and evolve together. This is not about perfection, hustle culture, or surface-level positivity. It is about creating a safe space for women to have real conversations, challenge limiting beliefs, grow in self-awareness, and step more confidently into who they were created to become. At its core, Shades of Sisterhood exists to remind women that growth starts within — and no woman has to navigate that journey alone. Guests are always welcome. We'd love to meet you! **[Click here to join the call!](https://zoom.us/j/7894682064)** \*\*Evolve Women's Network is a membership based networking group.
