First International Definiens Symposium – |Madrid 2010

The first International Definiens Symposium took place 7-8 October 2010 at the Spanish Cardiovascular Research Center (CNIC) in Madrid.

19 stimulating talks presented by speakers from industrial and academic backgrounds demonstrated the variety and value of image analysis with Definiens. The fields of application discussed during the presentations reflected the full bandwidth of translational research, ranging from high-content assays to tissue-based applications to small animal imaging and human radiology. The scope of presentations encompassed solution development strategies right through to industrial use cases.

83 participants from Europe, the United States, Asia, and Australia were there to witness the exciting process of our global user base being transformed into a thriving community of users and developers. Between talks and after hours, participants networked extensively, and numerous discussions held outside of the official schedule further intensified the connections among the community. The densely packed, scientifically inspiring symposium finished with a Spanish-flavored evening event soaring high above the picturesque skyline of Madrid.
