Exciting milestones for our group! 🎉 Two of our master's students successfully defended their theses:
📌 Da Li: Editable Dynamic Human Scene Reconstruction Using Gaussian Splatting Based on a Skinning Model
📌 Alexandra Irger: Towards Digital Twins for Coral Simulation
🎉 Congratulations to our incredible students on their remarkable achievements!
This year, two PhD students and one Master's student successfully defended their theses:
1-Ngan Nguyen PhD: Cellular Mesoscale Visualization from Electron Microscopy Imaging. hdl.handle.net/10754/698799
2- Ruwayda Alharbi PhD: Scaling Atomistic Molecular Visualization to Microscale for Science Outreach. hdl.handle.net/10754/701154
3- Omar Mena MS: Conversational Visualization of Global Geospatial Data Using Text and Visual Information. hdl.handle.net/10754/701555
We are immensely proud of their hard work and contributions to advancing scientific visualization! 🚀👏

A more complete video presentation here, with perhaps a bit less degradation from video compression, though sadly still quite a lot:

Here's our differentiable microscopy simulation system that allows us to generate cryo-EM micrographs of complex scenes of biological structures, and to solve inverse problems through optimization, such as estimation of microscope parameters and denoising.

Join us for the VIZBI Masterclass! Prof. Ivan Viola will be discussing the newest techniques for interactive visualization with GPU acceleration, particularly on the web: WebAssembly, WebGPU, WebGPU Shading Language (WGSL), with some examples using biological data.
Want to spend two half-days learning state-of-the-art data visualization methods from leading experts? Join the VIZBI Masterclass, an online training event on March 27-28, just before the VIZBI Workshop. vizbi.org/2023/Masterclass
