Northumbria University, located at Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK, has some Faculty member position opportunities. As we hope to have more computer graphics and computer vision people applying, please kindly consider the job and help us to share the information in your network. The job advertisement can be found here: https://www.northumbria.ac.uk/work-for-us/job-vacancies/academic-1654-lectur er--senior-lecturer Lecturer/Senior Lecturer is equivalent to Assistant Professor in the American system. This is a permanent position upon recruitment. The department is open to recruiting multiple people for the post. The Department of Computer & Information Sciences at Northumbria University was recently ranked 251-300 in THE Computer Science World University Subject Rankings <https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/2019/subject -ranking/computer-science#!/page/0/length/25/name/northumbria/sort_by/rank/s ort_order/asc/cols/stats> with an estimated World Rank of 260th, equating to a UK rank of =30th (alongside Cardiff and York). We just hired 8 permanent faculty members in 2017/18, and is hiring more now in 2018/19. Now the department consists of 70 permanent staff members and is one of the largest Computer/Information Sciences department in the UK. The Computational Intelligence and Visual Computing Research Team <https://www.northumbria.ac.uk/about-us/academic-departments/computer-and-in formation-sciences/research/computational-intelligence-and-visual-computing/ > led by Hubert Shum <http://info.hubertshum.com/> consists of academics from the areas of artificial intelligence, graphics and vision. It organized international conferences such as BMVC 2018 <http://www.bmvc2018.org/> and ACM SIGGRAPH Conference in Motion, Interaction and Games 2019 <http://www.mig2019.website/> .

VCBM 2019 - Call for Papers

by eurographics＠eg.org

VCBM 2019 Call for Papers http://www.vcbm.org/ Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine 2019 in Brno, Czech Republic *) Workshop Dates: September 4-6, 2019 *) Submission Deadline: June 14, 2019 Aims and Scope EG VCBM (http://www.vcbm.org/), the Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology and Medicine, is an annual event addressing the state of the art in visual computing research with a strong focus on applications in biology and medicine. It provides an interdisciplinary forum for experts (researchers and practitioners) from visualization, visual analytics, computer graphics, image processing, computer vision, human-computer interfaces as well as experts from biology and medicine, jointly working on next generation visual computing solutions for medicine, healthcare and the biotechnology sector. This years workshop (already the 9th VCBM since its foundation in 2008) will be held during September 4-6, 2019, in Brno, Czech Republic. EG VCBM solicits the submission of original, application-oriented research papers that advance the fusion of visual computing methods within medicine and biology. All papers (regular papers as well as short papers) should focus on a well-defined biological/medical problem, and demonstrate a significant innovation or improvement in visual computing. Suggested topics for full and short papers include, but are not limited to: *) Visual computing solutions for medical applications like radiology, surgery, pathology, cardiology, nephrology, neurology, etc., including medical education *) Visual computing solutions for applications that support biomedical research in systems biology, *omics research, molecular pathology, neuroanatomy, biomedical imaging, etc. *) Operation room of the future, including the uses of virtual reality and augmented reality in medical applications. *) Visualization approaches for data from new or challenging imaging modalities including real-time imaging (e.g., ultrasound) *) Visual computing solutions in the context of the virtual physiological human. Medical simulation and visual computing solutions that support new approaches in computational medicine. *) Visual analytics solutions for data coming from epidemiological studies, like population studies. In addition to that, we solicit: *) Survey papers on visual computing in biology and medicine Information for Authors In addition to full-length papers, there will be again a short papers track and a survey track, encouraging scientific contributions from an even more diverse group of researchers and practitioners. All VCBM 2019 papers (full, short and surveys) will be peer-reviewed and will appear in the Eurographics Digital Library. We encourage the use of digital videos to support all submissions, particularly if part of, or all of the work covers interactive techniques. Please use only the most common video codecs such as MP4 to maximize the chances that the reviewers can view it. *) Full Papers: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers to the full papers track. However, it is unusual for papers to exceed 10 pages (in CGF latex style including all images and references). Papers should only be as long as their content would justify. Reviewers might rate a submission lower if it is perceived as being unnecessarily long or might recommend it for a short paper, instead. Authors are encouraged to use supplementary material, such as videos or executable programs to provide extra contents. As in previous years, the authors of the best three papers will be invited by the Computer Graphics Forum (CGF) journal to submit a revised version, which needs to have a significant amount of novel material, and be within the focus subjects of the CGF journal. *) Short Papers: Short papers describe a more focused and concise research contribution and are likely to have a smaller - yet significant - scope of contribution. Potential examples include the presentation of initial results from novel ongoing research projects or the exploration of new application areas. Short papers draw from the same list of topics as full papers. Their length is limited to a total of 5 pages (including references). *) Surveys: We do not impose strict maximum lengths for submitted papers to the surveys track. However, it is unusual for surveys to exceed 20 pages (in CGF latex style including all images and references). Authors are encouraged to use supplementary material, such as videos, to provide extra contents. Surveys are also eligible for the CGF journal invitation. VCBM 2019 will also feature a poster program, the details of which will be announced in a separate call. Submission Instructions Papers can be submitted using the Eurographics SRM conference management system here: https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/VCBM_2019 <https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/VCBM_2019%0d> Login with your existing SRM account, or create a new one using the relevant links. More information on the preparation of your submissions will also be available on the VCBM 2019 website: <http://www.vcbm.org/> http://www.vcbm.org/ Important Dates *) Paper submission deadline (full, short and survey papers): June 14, 2019 *) Author notification: July 12, 2019 *) Camera-ready deadline: August 2, 2019 *) Workshop: September 4-6, 2019 All deadlines are at 23:59 CET (UTC+1). Sincerely, the Full Paper Co-Chairs of EG VCBM 2019, Barbora Kozlikova (Masaryk University, Czech Republic) Lars Linsen (University of Münster, Germany) Pere-Pau Vazquez (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Spain) together with the Short Paper Co-Chairs of EG VCBM 2019, Kai Lawonn (Universität Koblenz-Landau, Germany ) Renata Georgia Raidou (TU Wien, Austria)
