Welcome to the Imaging Club at UIC (ICUIC)!
Spearheaded by imaging enthusiasts at UIC, ICUIC will host a series of joint journal clubs discussing the latest advancement in imaging sciences and imaging-enabled biological and chemical sciences. In the fall of 2019, participating research groups from the east and west campus will meet last Thursday of the month at 3 pm. Please refer to the presentation schedule for the meeting location.
We thank Dr. Gary Mo for the design of our emblem!
