Firstly, because we have a new section: the Lab of the Month ! We offer you a virtual visit inside a computer vision and imaging lab, including a first-hand witness of the fascinating work which is done there. We start with the Robotics and Control Laboratory (RCL) at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Purang Abolmaesumi and members of his team opened their door to our magazine and even allowed me to test one of their da Vinci systems . Read it in page 18! Please let me point your attention at page 17: the Medical Imaging Summer School MISS2018 - that will be held in the lovely Italian island of Favignana, Sicily - extended its registration deadline to April 7. If you want to learn all about Deep Learning, join Julia Schnabel and an impressive line up of speakers, including Sebastien Ourselin , Sanja Fidler and more. Of course, we did not forget any of our regular sections nor our exclusive technical articles and reviews : this month we help save time for those who want to do computer vision work on Amazon Cloud . Read it in page 12. A word for our new readers: Computer Vision News is published with dedication and passion by RSIP Vision , a Global Leader in Computer Vision and Deep Learning . The magazine is our gift to the algorithm community. Enjoy the reading! Ralph Anzarouth Marketing Manager, RSIP Vision Editor, Computer Vision News
