Activity Type: Discussion
Date: 19th October | Time: 19:00-21:00
Buttery, Wolfson College.

Ceramic artist Margaret O'Rorke and Dr. Yi Yin, a researcher in AI for health, are delighted to invite you to a one-day practical workshop on Saturday, 5th October, and a discussion on Saturday, 19th October, on 'Linking Creative Clay Models with AI 3D Printing and Design.' No previous experience is required. This interdisciplinary project is supported by SCC and the OxfordXML research cluster.

Art is the result of human creative activities. Artists constantly seek new tools and materials to express their creativity and imagination. Can the development of new technology inspire creative artistic activities? And vice versa?

During the workshop, participants will learn how to create clay models and AI-generated 3D models, as well as gain an understanding of how 3D printing works.

At the discussion, participants will be invited to reflect on what they have experienced and learned, exploring how new sparks of creativity can emerge from the combination of art and technology.

  •  Workshop: 5th October, 9:30 am - 4 pm, Buttery (lunch provided). Places are limited, so BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL.

  •  Discussion: 19th October, 7-9 pm, Buttery (tea, coffee, and biscuits provided). Open to all members of Wolfson College, with a discussion following the collaborative workshop. Please join us!

Combining AI and imaging to understand cardiovascular diseases

Speaker: Prof Paul Leeson
Time: 17:00-18:00
Levett Room, Wolfson College & Online (Teams link). Please note that this talk is only open to members of the University.

Prof. Paul Leeson is a Cardiologist and Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford and Head of the Oxford Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility. His research group has pioneered the use of imaging and artificial intelligence within cardiology, with innovations developed by the group, particularly in the field of echocardiography, now in use in hospitals.

Advances in image processing with artificial intelligence have generated exciting new ways to work with medical images both within research and clinical practice. This talk will discuss some particular use examples within cardiology including how computational modelling can help understand early cardiac development, diagnose cardiac diseases and uncover new ways to think about hypertension.
