WILSON is a patient-level foundation model that uses multi-magnification composite images. WILSON is easily fine-tunable, compact and fast, and as a vision-language model, it can generate diagnostic text. URL: arxiv.org/abs/2609.25123
...and 𝐖𝐈𝐋𝐒𝐎𝐍 is born. Congrats to the entire, particularly to @saghiralfasly and @UegamiWataru who have spent countless hours bringing WILSON to life. A major milestone and an exciting beginning! URL: arxiv.org/abs/2609.25123

Significant safety risk of pathology foundation models. the paper demonstrates that foundation models are uniquely vulnerable because of their scale, shared architectures (especially ViTs), and representational uniformity across models. URL: arxiv.org/abs/2510.16660 #AI #pathology
