2024 Summer school on deep learning for medical imaging, 5th Edition

Welcome to the 2024 summer school on deep learning for medical imaging!

This school is intended for medical imaging beginners and experts (students, post-docs, research professionals, and professors) who are eager to discover the fundamentals of deep learning and how it translates to medical imaging. We will walk you through the basics of machine learning all the way to the latest deep learning breakthroughs applied to medical imaging. As shown in the planning, the school has both oral presentations (15 hours) and 4 hands-on sessions of 3 hours each. During the hands-on sessions, the participants will be guided through the dos and don'ts of machine learning programs for medical imaging. Please see the program for more details.

Should you be a machine learning / deep learning expert to attend the school? NO! That is the point of this school!

Should you be a programming expert to attend the hands-on session? NO! Only basic skills in Python programming are required.

We have enough room to accommodate 70 on-site participants. So do not wait and register!

Since we anticipate that more than 70 people will register to our summer school, we will grant the possibility for people to virtually attend the school in an asynchronous manner. These virtual participants will not be permitted on-site participation but will have access to the recorded videos as well as the hands-on session material towards the end of the school.

  • Jose Dolz

    Jose Dolz

    École de technologie supérieure, Canada

    Jose Dolz is Associate Professor in the Department of Software and IT Engineering at the ETS Montreal. Prior to be appointed Assistant Professor, he was a post-doctoral fellow at the ETS Montreal. Dr. Dolz obtained his B.Sc and M.Sc in the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain, and his Ph.D. at the University of Lille 2, France, in 2016. Dr. Dolz was recipient of a Marie-Curie FP7 Fellowship (2013-2016) to pursue his doctoral studies. His current research focuses on deep learning, medical imaging, optimization and learning strategies with limited supervision. He authored over 50 fully peer-reviewed papers, many of which published in the top venues in medical imaging (MedIA/TMI/MICCAI/IPMI), vision (CVPR) and learning (NeurIPS, ICML).

  • Michaël Sdika

    Michaël Sdika

    University of Lyon, France

    Michaël Sdika is a full member of the CREATIS lab in Lyon, France. His current research field focuses on the development of new analysis method based on deep learning for medical data. His main contributions are centered around image registration, atlas based segmentation, structure localization and machine learning for MR image of the nervous central system.

  • Thomas Grenier

    Thomas Grenier

    University of Lyon, France

    Dr. Thomas Grenier is Associate Professor at INSA Lyon Electrical Engineering department and at the CREATIS lab in Lyon, France.

    My research focuses on longitudinal analysis of medical data to study evolution as Multiple Sclerosis lesions, functional activity (muscle and hydrocephaly). Most of these studies involve a segmentation task and dedicated pre and post processing steps. Clustering (spatio-temporal mean-shift), semi-supervised (multi-atlas with machine learning) or fully supervised (DNN) schemes are used to solve such problems considering their specific constraints.

  •  Mohammadhadi Shateri

    Mohammadhadi Shateri

    ETS

    Mohammadhadi Shateri (Member, IEEE) received the B.Sc. degree (with Hons.) in electrical engineering from the Amirkabir University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 2012, the M.Sc. degree (with Hons.) in electrical engineering from the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, Canada, in 2017, and the Ph.D. in electrical engineering from McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada, in 2021.,His research interests include machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning with application to data analytics.
