🚨New paper published!🚨 We investigate 10 different quality metrics for attribution-based explanations on 8 image datasets, and use the results to propose a set of benchmarking guidelines. Read all about it here: doi.org/10.1007/s10994…

Proud to present our work at #SIAMIS24. We show that classical compressed sensing techniques can be used to obtain a defense against adversarial perturbations that is not only very efficient but also has nice interpretable robustness guarantees. 💻🎆🙌arxiv.org/abs/2405.15971

👇Our paper is now peer-reviewed and published in eLife - the journal! We've also added a new case study on a Visium dataset of mouse melanoma. 📄 Read here: elifesciences.org/articles/88431 💻 GitHub repo: github.com/saeyslab/spotl…

Our VIB hackathon on spatial omics has 🚀 liftoff 🚀 ! 37 researchers of 30 institutes from 12 countries, coming together 3 days to create new tools and methods. hackmd.io/@berombau/BJet… #flandersai #SpatialOmics24

Powering up for Day 2 of spatial omics hacking with our nice new VIB.AI coffee mugs #CoffeeToCode #SpatialOmics24 #FlandersAI

We celebrate the end of our three-day 🚀hackathon🚀 on spatial omics tools and methods in #Ghent #Belgium. A big thanks to all of the researchers across Europe. Check out our final slide deck and code! docs.google.com/presentation/d… github.com/saeyslab/VIB_H… #SpatialOmics24

Lotte Pollaris presenting the Sparrow pipeline. Fantastic collaboration between SaeysLab, Charlotte Scott and our lab. Automated analysis of spatial omics data. How to annotate cells & correct for imaging artefacts. Fantastic presentation by this super talented PhD student 🤩🤩🤩👏🏻👏🏻

Honored to have received a CZI grant for further developing the cell-cell communication models of the future, together with "the other" Saez-Rodriguez Group 😀 Really looking forward to this one ! SaeysLab Chan Zuckerberg Initiative

What does the future of spatial omics data processing pipelines look like ? Meet Sparrow, our new human-in-the-loop interactive pipeline that facilitates better quality control, improves segmentation and leads to better downstream analysis Lotte Pollaris biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
