Abstract: Knuth's statement "Biology easily has 500 years of exciting problems to work on" is applicable for understanding pathology as well. In this talk, I will discuss how computational approaches are transforming the practice of pathology and how it can be used to understand disease mechanisms. We will discuss how machine learning and artificial intelligence can be used to identify different types of cells in whole slide images, determine tissue subtypes, predict important cancer parameters and survival patterns. The goal is to provide an overview of the state of computational pathology as it stands now, its future and how it can be integrated with other modalities to help solve some exciting problems.
