Neuro‐immune interactions in health and disease: insights from FENS‐Hertie 2022 Winter School by Binder, LB, Rosa, PB, de Sousa, BM, Chagas, LS, Dubljević, O, Martineau, FS, Mottarlini, F, Castany, S, Morton, L, Krstanović, F, Tassinari, ID, Choconta, JL, Pereira‐Santos, AR, Weinhard, L, Pallegar, PN, Vahsen, BF, Lepiarz‐Raba, I, Compagnion, A, Lorente‐Picón, M

“…The Winter School focused on a rising field of research, the interactions between the nervous and both innate and adaptive immune systems under pathological and physiological conditions. A fine‐tuned neuro‐immune crosstalk is fundamental for healthy development, while disrupted neuro‐immune communication might play a role in neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation and aging. …”

Free3D: consistent novel view synthesis without 3D representation by Zheng, C, Vedaldi, A

“…Similar to Zero-1-to-3, we start from a pre-trained 2D image generator for generalization, and fine-tune it for NVS. Compared to other works that took a similar approach, we obtain significant improvements without resorting to an explicit 3D representation, which is slow and memory-consuming, and without training an additional network for 3D reconstruction. …”
