(1/4)Is image segmentation a solved problem by #AI? maybe for natural images,but hardly true for cell segmentation! To address the gap, we announce the cell seg competition (neurips22-cellseg.grand-chal… ) in multi-modal high-resolution microscopy images in #NeurIPS2022.Join us and RT!

Wow: Mammalian stem cells protect themselves from RNA viruses using a spliced isoform of Dicer, like insects and worms, which also use Dicer-dependent RNA interference in antiviral defense) and in contrast with mammalian differentiated cells, which rely on the interferon system
