“Decoding Interactions: AI-Driven Insights into Host-Pathogen Dynamics” to be Feb. 16

The upcoming AI Deep Dive session on Feb. 16, will feature a team of VUMC researchers led by Dr. Eric Skaar, in collaboration with VU’s dedicated Data Science team.

Skaar’s laboratory, which is focusing their work in infectious diseases, looks to gain deeper insights into Staphylococcus aureus, commonly known as Staph. This bacterium, known for causing various infections, has a complex interaction with human cells, especially within the immune system. During the deep dive, particpants will discuss and explore the innovative use of AI and genome-wide imaging to unravel the intricacies of host-pathogen dynamics.

For those who wish to attend remotely, a Zoom link will be provided upon registration.
