Interview with Piyush Daga

Posted by , on 3 September 2024

Piyush was one of the three-minute talk presenters at our recent science communication event, SciCommConnect. At the event, which we co-hosted with the Node and preLights, we were treated to fantastic talks on a range of topics. Piyush’s talk really stood out to us, not least because of the striking microscopy image on his slide.

Prompt Engineering in Bio-image Analysis

Posted by , on 18 July 2024

Prompt engineering and its importance Communication is key. This saying is not only true in day-to-day life, but also when interacting with Generative Artificial Intelligence, a system able to generate text, images or other output types in response to prompts. In prompt engineering, we use natural language to describe the task that a Large Language
