Tomography Day is an opportunity to find out more about X-ray tomography and 3D imaging for medical, biological, palaeontological, geological and archaeological applications.
Lectures will be given by internationally renowned specialists in the morning, and a workshop will be held in the afternoon to introduce different packages of 3D imaging software. Please note that the workshop will be restricted to 20 participants due to the limited number of 3D workstations available.
The day will be held in English.
