Excited to share our new paper (CVPR 2026 🚀): "MuViT: Multi-Resolution Vision Transformers for Learning Across Scales in Microscopy" which enables local predictions to use global context.
Great work led by @albertdm.bsky.social & another fun collab w @gioelelamanno.bsky.social! @scadsai.bsky.social

Does anyone ever get used seeing and hearing themselves?
Other than the emotional self-cringe, the video is done super well! Thanks MIND! 👍

😔 Paper rejected from MIDL with 5 (strong accept), a 2 (weak reject, that was initially a 3, borderline), and a no show third reviewer (initially a 4, weak accept).

Zero answer from the AC despite us writing to them about R2 being a reviewer two… 🤷‍♂️

How is your Saturday?!? 😉

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:

Funding a research institute of some hundred people for 10 years?
1.5 Billion.

Funding continued defense of a small country in a war for 2 or so years?
90 Billion.

Elon Musk’s personal wealth?
Estimated 750 Billion.

We are fine! Please move on, there is nothing to see here… 🙏

Twitter, pre-Elon had a whole safety team that made sure things like this did not happen.
