We are super thrilled to meet 40+ participants from all over the world for our animal vision modelling & imaging workshop in Melbourne! Just like #ISBE2024, this has been in the making since before 2020. Good things take time! micaToolbox #colsci
It's been a fantastic micaToolbox workshop and first few days of the conference! Not without impact by the looks: Spotted at the Haiku board at #ISBE2024 😂
