Looking back
Wow & a deep bow to this extraordinary imaging science community! You have made this EMIM the biggest and most vibrant yet. Thanks for joining this adventure, for your support, your trust and patience, and your unlimited dedication for this wonderful, multidisciplinary research field you all have the pleasure to work in.
EMIM App
Out of respect for the environment, no printed programmes were provided. The EMIM APP will continue to be available (https://eventclass.it/app/emim2024/). The access of digital posters, video pitches, or your notes are only available for EMIM attendees (login required).
