AI4Life
Artificial Intelligence For Image Data Analysis in The Life Sciences, funded by Horizon Europe, created to serve YOU!
- As we wrap up the year, we’re reflecting on what AI4Life delivered and what continues beyond the project. AI4Life concluded in August 2025, but its outcomes remain central to FAIR, accessible AI-powered bioimage analysis. Here’s where to start: www.eurobioimaging.eu/news/ai4life...
- What impact did AI4Life have? From open AI models to sustainable services and infrastructure, the project laid foundations that will be reused well beyond its lifetime. Read more about key results and impact: ai4life.eurobioimaging.eu/in-retrospec...

- 3rd challenge from AI4Life! We're inviting the community to design unsupervised models that preserve spatial & temporal patterns in neuronal data. 📅 Open till Aug 11, 2025 🚀 Join now: ai4life.eurobioimaging.eu/challenge-3/
- Reposted by AI4Life- A postdoc to work on cancer extravasation (4-year project). - A postdoc help in completing Filopodia-related lab projects (2-year). - Multiple Marie Curie postdoc positions that will open in the fall. - We will open a 5-year position to cover my teaching (70% research and 30% teaching).
- 🐾 The BioImage Model Zoo just got a major upgrade! It has been fully redesigned, offering a new backend, model uploader, community curation tools, and integrated browser-based test runs powered by BioEngine. 🧪 Explore now 👉 bioimage.io
- The 2nd AI4Life Challenge is live! Calling the AI & bioimaging community to tackle a key microscopy challenge: removing noise while preserving detail. 📦 Paired noisy/clean datasets 📈 Ground-truth evaluation 🧠 DL focus Build, test, compete 👉 ai4life.eurobioimaging.eu/challenge-2/
- If unsupervised approaches are your thing, also check out the unsupervised denoising challenge and submit your solutions (the challenge is from last year, but we are still taking entries from everyone who is interested). 👉 ai4life-mdc24.grand-challenge.org
- Ever wished your AI model could test itself before you download it? Now it can. AI4Life has a new model evaluation platform that connects models from the BioImage Model Zoo to real data in the @bioimagearchive.bsky.social. Details here 👉 ai4life.eurobioimaging.eu/the-ai4life-...

- The AI4Life Community Event comes to a close. We wrapped up with a big-picture discussion around the sustainability of services and the role that AI4Life plays in the EOSC. Thank you to everyone who joined us in Helsinki and online! 🦒 Stay connected 💚
- 📘 Where science meets policy: Stefan Liebler (European Commission 🇪🇺) shares insights on Open Science, AI, EOSC, and how projects like AI4Life support the European research strategy. But also, he showcased notebooks running on the EOSC EU node! 🤖
- ☁️ Interoperability in action: @ai4eosc.eu’s AI4Life cloud marketplace lets researchers run Bioimage.IO models. A true success story of aligning European infrastructure for science. Thanks to our friends at @ai4eosc.eu for making this possible!
- 🌐 Shoutout to @globias.bsky.social, one of our global partners in promoting community-driven AI presented by @mycroscopy.bsky.social 🎥 Did you catch our joint seminar series? Don't forget to register for the upcoming ones! bit.ly/registration...
- Partner Research infrastructures in AI4Life have been instrumental in the reach of use cases gathered at the open calls. We heard today about some successful projects! @embrc-eu.bsky.social, EU-OPENSCREEN, EMPHASIS and @instruct-eric.bsky.social
- Industry collaboration is key to real-world impact. @zeiss-microscopy.bsky.social is a contributor to CAREamics, one of the BioImage.IO community partners. Also, Bioimage.IO models can be applied right after image acquisition with ZEN API. We need more of that!
- 💬 After lunch, we’re back with the AI4Life Community: tool builders, research infrastructures, and industry voices. Community tools like @biapyx.bsky.social and SpotMAX show how AI4Life partners are building bridges between developers and end users.
