Call for Workshop and Tutorial Proposals

Proposal Deadline: 19 January 2007
In PDF or Microsoft Word to proposals@miccai2007.org
Notification of Acceptance: 16 February 2007

The Workshop and Tutorials Chair invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the main MICCAI 2007 conference.

MICCAI 2007, the 10th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention, will be held from 29 October to 2 November 2007 in Brisbane, Australia.

Workshops and tutorials of half or full day duration will be held on either Monday 29 October or Friday 2 November 2007 at the MICCAI 2007 venue, the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The purpose of workshops is to provide a comprehensive forum on topics which will not be fully explored during the main conference by discussing technical and application issues in depth.

The purpose of tutorials is to provide educational material for training new professionals in the field including students, clinicians and new researchers.

Proposers must supply justification for the relevance and viability of intended workshops/tutorials to allow competitive selection.

MICCAI 2007 organisers will collect workshop/tutorial registrations and fees, provide facilities, arrange catering and (optionally) printing of the workshop proceedings.

Guidelines on how to submit a workshop/tutorial proposal are available at How to Submit a Workshop/Tutorial Proposal.

Specialised topics to be addressed in MICCAI workshops/tutorials may be sub-topics of the main conference topics, or may be computational or clinical aspects which cross-over several of the major conference topics. Detailed information on the research topics is at Research Topics.

• General medical image computing
• Computer assisted interventional systems and robotics
• Visualization and interaction
• General biological and neuroscience image computing
• Computational anatomy (statistics on anatomy)
• Computational physiology (virtual organs)
• Innovative clinical and biological applications

Proposals and any related questions should be sent to proposals@miccai2007.org.
