Headquarters for applied AI in Munich
Using data resources concretely with the help of artificial intelligence: That is the goal of the Helmholtz Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Unit (HAICU). Head of the research network is Prof. Fabian Theis.
AI against errors
Using single-cell analysis, researchers study the behavior of cells. But the method is prone to errors. A deep learning algorithm can now detect these errors.
