Abstract : Advancements in AI have revolutionized the way we analyze histopathology slides, allowing us to identify subtle patterns and biomarkers that were previously undetectable. In this talk, Omar will present a practical overview of going from H&E slides to AI-based cancer biomarker predictions. Moreover, he will touch upon current and future research challenges in the Kather Lab, including the different modalities and cohorts they are working with.
