====== What is the PathoTrainer ? ======


The PathoTrainer is a dedicated tool for creating virtual spaces in which digital pathology education, data collection, and testing of pathologists with or without AI support are all facilitated.

PathoTrainer has two major components:
  - The Training Sessions, which are only visible to invited users and are the virtual rooms in which cases can be viewed, forms can be filled, discussions can be had etc.
  - The Content Management admin menu in which training sessions, images, etc are created.


=== Possibilities: ===
PathoTrainer is used by: 
  * Pharmaceutical companies
  * Pathology departments
  * Research institutes
  * diagnostic AI companies
  * Universities
  * and Quality control organisations. 

You can use it for:
  * Design, development and validation of new scoring algorithms/systems, including an AI/ML algorithm
  * Live classes to broaden awareness of biomarker scoring algorithms 
  * Creating independent self-directed biomarker courses for pathologists
  * Training and retraining a scoring algorithm/system
  * Tuning for an existing scoring algorithm/system (e.g. HER2 scoring system)
  * Ring studies and surveys
