Empa-Akademie
Topics
Imaging by a multitude of modalities from electron, atomic force & optical microscopy, X-ray & neutron imaging, ultrasonic and focused ion beam techniques and more, as well as different methods and techniques used for performing image analysis.
Target audience
Scientists, Ph.D.’s and post-docs working with different imaging techniques and image analysis methods. Anyone who is interested in learning about the latest developments in imaging and image analyses.
Objectives
The series of Empa Topical Days on Imaging and Image Analysis, an event of the Research Focus Area 'Health and Performance', offers scientists, both from the ETH domain and from other public/private institutions, a broad platform for keeping abreast of the latest developments and for sharing experience in the fields of imaging/image analysis.
In this 14th edition, we are very excited to be back with an in-person event after being three years online and offering an unprecedentedly broad scope of different imaging techniques involving and equally range of different applications from material to life and medical sciences and the corresponding image analyzes techniques.
