Presentation Slides
[For attendees of the Digital Pathology Congress only]

NB:  You will see that not all the presenters from the conference are listed below.  This is where the company or speaker have not given permission for release.  This is usually due to corporate rules or because there was unpublished material in the presentation.  In the case of the latter, we take the view that it is better to have exclusive presentations on the day, given before official publication, than to restrict the content of the conference by insisting on releasing such data in slide form, regardless of sensitivity or readiness for external examination.  We hope you feel the same way.

If you were a speaker and have not yet responded to our request for confirmation, please email scott@globalengage.co.uk to let us know if we can release your slides as a PDF.  If there are issues with release, let me know if we need to remove your name from the page or whether there are smaller issues and we can share a revised version of the slides.

These slides are provided as a courtesy by the authors, who retain copyright. This is not a publication and slides may be withdrawn at any time at the authors request.
