ESP Webinar Series on AI in Electron Microscopy
Part 5: Artificial intelligence in cryo-electron microscopy17 June 2026 | 15:00 - 16:00 CEST
Introduction
The European Society of Pathology (ESP) with the collaboration of the ESP Working Group Electron Microscopy, is proud to organise a 6-part series “AI-EM! Application of Artificial Intelligence to Electron Microscopy”.
The objective of this webinar series is to highlight applications of AI in diagnostic and research EM areas. This can significantly enhance image analysis, decision-making, and real-time processing and thus facilitate clinical decisions.
As is the case with all ESP webinars, this series will be recorded and made available to ESP members via the ESP Educational Platform.
More information on this part of the webinar series will soon be published.
