 OBJECTIVES 
 
 The workshop will address the basic principles of image processing,
 computer vision and pattern recognition. The main part of the workshop
 will focus on the various applications of imaging in bio-medical fields.
 A series of lectures from the major researchers in the bio-medical field
 in Western Australia will help give a perspective on imaging
 applications in their field of expertise, e.g. biology, zoology,
 pathology, ophthalmology, radiology, anatomy, forensic science,
 telemedicine. 
       The intended audience for the workshop is bio-medical students 
 and researchers using or planning to use image analysis and pattern
 recognition in their research. This workshop will give the audience a
 basic understanding of imaging and some examples of applications in
 bio-medicine. 
       There will be an exhibition of imaging packages and instruments 
 by various imaging companies and service providers. 
       Professor Ian Constable, Director of the Lions Eye Institute, 
 will be our keynote speaker. 
       All attendees will be given an official workshop publication, 
 which will consist of the speakers' presentation or summary paper, and
