Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine (EG VCBM)

by Stefanie Behnke

C a l l f o r C o n t r i b u t i o n s 2nd Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine (EG VCBM) July 1-2, 2010 - Universitaet Leipzig, Germany http://vcbm.org/2010 Aims and Scope -------------- Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine addresses the integration of state-of-the-art visualization and image analysis for application to research in biology and medicine. Integrating visualization and image analysis brings with it particular challenges, but also yields new possibilities, especially when extended for application to the wide gamut of research topics in biology and medicine, such as molecular imaging, quantitative longitudinal studies, pre- and intra-operative surgical guidance, and the diverse field of system biology. VCBM is unique in that it will bring together researchers and practitioners from visualization, image processing and biology and medicine. We expect to attract a number of attendees with biological and medical backgrounds, also from the surrounding academic medical centers. This will pose a unique opportunity to showcase the latest ideas from engineering and science, to get feedback from biological and medical practitioners, and to explore new possibilities for cooperative research. VCBM solicits the submission of original application-oriented research papers that advance the fusion of visualization and image analysis with imaging-based medicine and biological science. All papers should focus on a well-defined biological or medical context, and should demonstrate a significant innovation or improvement in visual computing that addresses ongoing problems in that context. Suggested topics for papers include, but are not limited to: - Applications in cardiovascular medicine, neurosurgery, radiology, and other medical disciplines - Applications on Gene Expression Data and other system biology topics - Visualization methods for neurobiology, plant biology and developmental biology - Interactive segmentation and registration - Computer-aided diagnosis and detection - Intervention and therapy planning (eg. pre-operative surgical or radiation therapy planning) - Intra-operative guidance for surgery - Visualization and Simulation for Surgical Training - Coupled simulation and visualization - Multi-field medical visualization and processing (multi-modality, structural + functional) - Perception-based studies for medical visual computing - Reconstruction from image data, such as microscopic or radiological data - Creation and visualization of biological/medical atlases Submission Information ---------------------- Paper submission is electronic only. Full details, including formatting instructions and the submission procedure are provided through the workshop webpage at http://vcbm.org/2010/submission-info/. Papers should be formatted according to the EG workshop publication guidelines (http://www.eg.org/publications/guidelines). You are strongly recommended to use the respective EG LaTeX style files available. Papers should not exceed 8 pages in length. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and will appear in the EG-published conference proceedings. A small number of excellent papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper for the VCBM 2010 Special Issue of Elsevier's Journal Computers and Graphics. Supplementary material (e.g. videos) can also be provided, and will be considered when the paper is reviewed; see the submission site for full details. Posters We invite you to contribute to the first VCBM Poster session. Poster abstract submissions are due April 19, 2010. For accepted posters there will be a session where all presenters will concurrently discuss their work with VCBM attendees and a poster compendium that will contain the abstracts. The poster session is a venue for several kinds of work. We welcome preliminary findings that are not mature enough for a full paper, interesting work with a contribution smaller than a typical research paper (student projects often fall into this category), or late-breaking research where you would benefit from feedback from the community before writing it up as a full paper. The suggested topics are the same as for the papers. More information can be found at the workshop website. Conference Location ------------------- VCBM 2010 will be held in Leipzig, Germany. Leipzig hosts the 2nd oldest university in Germany, which is currently celebrating its 600 anniversary. Next to cultural landmarks (former home of Johann-Sebastian Bach and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, the Gewandhaus Orchestra, the New Leipzig School of painting, etc.), it provides a rich research environment for medicine, biology, bioinformatics, and visual computing. It is conveniently located in the heart of Europe and it is a major hub of the German Railway (with direct train connections from Frankfurt Airport). Nearby airports include the Airport Leipzig/Halle and the airports of Berlin. Invited Speakers ---------------- Roland Bammer, Stanford University Anders Ynnermann, Linkoepings Universiteit Workshop Cochairs ------------------ Dirk Bartz, Universitaet Leipzig Charl Botha, Delft University of Technology Joachim Hornegger, University of Erlangen-Nuernberg Raghu Machiraju, The Ohio State University Poster Chair Alexander Wiebel, Max-Planck-Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig Important Dates --------------- Paper submission February 28, 2010 Author notification April 9, 2010 Poster submission April 19, 2010 Camera-ready papers due May 3, 2010 Workshop July 1-2, 2008 Contact information ------------------- For more information please visit http://vcbm.org/2010 or contact: Dirk Bartz 2010(a)vcbm.org
