Correlative Imaging Forum is an open discussion platform that brings together research staff from the Biomedical Imaging Unit (BIU) and the μ-VIS X-Ray Imaging Centre working on correlative imaging.
The meetings are organised by Dr. Orestis Katsamenis (coordinator), Dr Philipp Schneider and Dr. Peter Lackie and take place biweekly. Meeting sites alternate between BIU (University Hospital Southampton) and μ-VIS (Highfield Campus) to allow researchers for other groups based on either campuses to participate.
Discussions are focused on technical issues and application areas related to correlative imaging, including latest developments in imaging and image processing as well as potential funding opportunities and conference calls. The forum provides an opportunity for students and academics to discuss, troubleshoot and receive feedback on their ongoing projects, and to enlarge their professional network at the University.
