The Baltimore Section chapters of IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology (EMB) and Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) will host a talk highlighting three key challenges faced by Deep Learning-based automatic X-ray image analysis methods: domain variability, anatomy awareness, and image superimposition.  The talk will present recent research findings and algorithmic advances addressing these three challenges and discuss future research directions.  The seminar will be hosted on 17 April at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab and registration is requested.

The IEEE Baltimore Section is planning to hold its annual senior membership drive for 2024.  Registration will open 1 April and continue through 5 May.  Interviews will be conducted over the phone or VTC and will be scheduled at a time and date that is convenient for the member.  This is an opportunity to talk with the people who will be references for your application to Senior Membership.  Check back in April for more information and links to resources.
