EurAsia Academy on Digital Pathology

Digital pathology (DP) and artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized the field of pathology. Although growing interest in DP & AI has been observed recently, there is still a reluctance to adopt this technology in routine clinical practice. Further, there is a need to harmonize this technology globally and bridge the knowledge gaps to get acquainted with the nuances of DP & AI. To this aim, we are pleased to announce the first-ever edition of the EurAsia Academy on Digital Pathology, an online event that will take place on October 10, 2023.

Organized by the European Society of Digital and Integrative Pathology (ESDIP), the Japanese Society of Digital Pathology (JSDP), and the Indian DP Interest Group, this event will bring together top-level experts from across the globe.

Throughout the day, pathologists, technicians, computer scientists, and clinicians, from entry-level to experienced users, will be able to follow online lectures that will cover major topics related to DP and AI. In this symposium, the following key areas will be addressed in two separate sessions:
1. Establishing and Transitioning to Digital Pathology
2. AI algorithms: From basics to clinical adoption

ESDIP Town Square Meeting: “Can I trust AI in Pathology?”

ESDIP Town Square Meeting
April 16, 2021 at 6 pm (CET)
“Can I trust AI in pathology?”

Dear All,

We are delighted to invite you to the ESDIP Town Square Meeting, a new series of informal events, starting on April 16, 2021, at 6:00 pm (CET) and aimed at promoting discussion around hot topics in digital and computational pathology.

Developed by the Educational Committee of ESDIP, under the supervision of Vincenzo Della Mea, from the University of Udine and Arvydas Laurinavičius from Vilnius University, this first meeting is titled “Can I trust AI in Pathology?”.




The main focus will be the role of artificial intelligence in pathology: the technology appears to be ready, but how reliable it is for the adoption in routine pathology practice?

The guests, Joe Saltz of the State University of New York at Stony Brook and Andrew Janowczyk of Case Western Reserve University, will briefly introduce their point of view about the title topic, then giving the floor to the public.

The valuable input from attendees, together with the expert views, will contribute to a better understanding of the advances as well as their possible clinical applications.

The workshop is free. You are welcome to attend, listen to the experts, and contribute with your viewpoint.To attend ESDIP Town Square Meeting, please send an email to 
admin@digitalpathologysociety.org until April 15, 2021. (Note: In case you have already submitted our registration and receive an email confirming it, please ignore this email). 

Sincerely,

Vincenzo Della Mea, Chair of the Educational Committee of ESDIP
On behalf of the Educational Committee of ESDIP

Il 16 e il 17 novembre PollicIoT al ciclo di eventi formativi “Integrazione tra robotica e domotica in sanità”

PollicIoT, progetto finanziato dalla RAFVG nell’ambito dei Por-Fesr 2014-2020, sarà presente giovedì 16 e venerdì 17 novembre alle giornate formative su “Integrazione tra robotica e domotica in sanità”, organizzate da Federsanità-ANCI a San Vito al Tagliamento (Pn).

immagine incontri formativi

La giornata di giovedì 16 novembre, dal titolo “Nuove Opportunità per i pazienti” si svolgerà a partire dalle ore 15, presso l’Auditorium IRCSS “E. Medea la Nostra Famiglia”. Il prof. Vincenzo Della Mea, del Dipartimento di Scienze Matematiche, Informatiche e Fisiche dell’Università degli Studi di Udine, partner del progetto PollicIoT, interverrà sul tema “Domotica per la qualità della vita in casa e nelle residenze”.

La giornata di venerdì 17 novembre, dal titolo “Quali sistemi sanitari e quale personale per i nuovi scenari internazionali” si terrà invece al Teatro Gian Giacomo Arrigoni a partire dalle 9.

Il progetto PollicIoT, che ha come partner Cimtech Srl e Mipot Spa, vuole rispondere in maniera efficace alle necessità di oltre 25 milioni di persone colpite dal morbo di Alzheimer in tutto il mondo, 520.000 solo in Italia. L’idea progettuale di  offre, in uno scenario Smart Health di Assisted Living, una soluzione completa dedicata all’assistenza dei malati di Alzheimer: da una piattaforma Web il caregiver sarà in grado di localizzare il paziente o ricevere notifiche di allarme in caso di caduta o uscita da perimetri predefiniti, grazie ad un dispositivo Wearable dotato di sensori GPS e per l’individuazione di posizione e movimenti del malato.
