-The KAUST Visualization Core Lab (KVL), in collaboration with ThermoFisher Scientific, is offering three half-day workshops on [[https://www.thermofisher.com/sa/en/home/electron-microscopy/products/software-em-3d-vis/avizo-software.html|Avizo]] (also known as Amira) - a multi-platform data analysis and scientific visualization tool. This workshop will be led by engineers from ThermoFisher, the developers of the software. Attendees will participate in tutorials, hands-on sessions, and discussions with the engineers on how to leverage Avizo in their scientific domains. Topics will include data visualization, quantitative analysis, image processing, segmentation, and 3D reconstruction. +The KAUST Visualization Core Lab (KVL), in collaboration with ThermoFisher Scientific, is offering three half-day workshops on how to use [[https://www.thermofisher.com/sa/en/home/electron-microscopy/products/software-em-3d-vis/avizo-software.html|Avizo]] (also known as Amira) for data visualization, quantitative analysis, image processing, segmentation, and 3D reconstruction. Avizo/Amira is a powerful multi-platform data analysis and scientific visualization tool.
