And that’s a wrap on a great week at #SPIEMedicalImaging! Thankful for meeting many wonderful researchers, sharing our work, and visiting Vancouver!

AI Fellow Dr. Katherine Van Schaik studies health across millennia—using radiology, molecular biology, archaeology, and history to understand disease as both biology and lived experience. Read more here: buff.ly/EgaUlt9

After years of development and testing, we are happy to present our work in "Diffusion MRI Processing in the HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study: Innovations and Applications"! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... A thread:

The 2025 AI Summer School is officially open for registration! Students, faculty, staff & partners from Vanderbilt and beyond—this is your chance to dive into an immersive, hands-on AI learning experience. 🗓️ Register by July 31 to secure your spot! 👉 www.vanderbilt.edu/valiant/2025...

Today, I have the privilege of celebrating Issue 3 of Volume 12 (2025) for the Journal of Medical Imaging. I hope that you find some inspiration in the hard work embodied within. www.spiedigitallibrary.org/journals/jou...

Our newest manuscript now in Scientific Reports. Title says it all "The relationship of white matter tract orientation to vascular geometry in the human brain" - where does WM align (and not align) with vasculature? @masi-lab.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great things come out when we harmonize together.

Happy birthday @vandyvaliant.bsky.social ! I had a bit of fun on a celebratory AI art project based on each member's publications. Here is mine: masi.vuse.vanderbilt.edu/valiant/7b3f...

Excited for our Spring lab party. Just a few minutes left to clean the house!

After an amazing ECE Day with Vanderbilt University Electrical and Computer Engineering, I have a few minutes to reflect on the Wonder Wall from VALIANT : Vanderbilt Lab for Immersive AI Translation's Reflection Zen Garden at the Grand Opening.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of SASHIMI. Excited to be part of the team and see the significant growth of the community over the past decade.

I’m thankful for the opportunity I had to present on work from @masi-lab.bsky.social on bias field correction at the #DIPY Workshop! Glad to support this useful #OpenSource toolkit for diffusion MRI.

Hi @mc-lab.bsky.social ! Welcome to Dr. Kurt Schilling and team!

I'm honored to work with Prof. Spencer-Smith across DSI and @vandyvaliant.bsky.social #AIDays

The AI Days breakfast is in full swing while I do a last minute check on our AV for @vandyvaliant.bsky.social dual perspectives on ai mini series.

My very first SPIE was in San Diego in 2018. Time flies, and it is likely that this will be the final SPIE held in SD. I was truly honored to have the opportunity to meet, interact with, and work with so many remarkable people who are committed to advancing human health.

I presented my work, “A technical assessment of latent diffusion for Alzheimer’s Disease progression”, at @spie.org Medical Imaging this week! This was a fantastic opportunity to share my work, ask questions, and build community. Thank you, SPIE!!

Hello BlueSky World. I'm working on back porting our content. For now, you can find us across platforms. I look forward to pursuing (and discussing) discovery together.

Congratulations! https://x.com/VUEngineering/status/1879915230857396408

Nice work! https://x.com/AdamSaunders97/status/1877812849243791391

I loaded in the syllabus // assignments for ES 3890 Studio in AI. I sent a "don't panic" e-mail to the students so that the million assignment-due messages throughout the term don't scare everyone away. We are going to dive deep into applied AI! This is going to be a great term.
