In the field of modern microscopy, where the analysis of complex biological images is not a trivial task, AI tools can help biologists to image better and faster and to make sense of gigantic image volumes produced by advanced microscopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the EMBL Insight Lecture 2021, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/groups\/kreshuk\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/groups\/kreshuk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Anna Kreshuk<\/a> introduces the field of computer vision and discusses how scientists profit from its recent breakthroughs in the area of modern microscopy.
