Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce that the Leica UK Team is organizing the next workshop in our Stellaris<https://www.leica-microsystems.com/products/confocal-microscopes/p/stellaris-8-falcon/> applications series on Tuesday, 3rd September. The topic for this session will be “Autonomous Microscopy.” Autonomous Microscopy enables highly economical operations for daily laboratory work, allowing advanced experiments that would otherwise require significant manual effort or be impossible without automated procedures. This approach includes a rare event detection workflow powered by AI-based microscopy, which facilitates the automated detection of rare events without human intervention and the complete automation of complex microscopic workflows. In this autonomous workflow, low-resolution 2D overview images are initially generated and immediately transferred to the connected AI-based image processing system (Aivia<https://www.leica-microsystems.com/products/microscope-software/p/aivia/>). This system detects rare events, previously defined by the operator, using a pixel classifier and sends the event coordinates back to the imaging system for high-resolution and 3D data stack scanning according to the operator's specifications. The result is highly specific data on the object of interest, generated in statistically relevant quantities due to the automation process. Please find the program of the event attached.
