As in previous years, the poster session will be part of the SCA program. However, the poster abstracts will not be included in the conference proceedings, thus providing more freedom for the authors to decide if they want to upload the posters as a timestamp or not. Note that as usual, a SCA poster does not preclude subsequent publication of a complete paper on the same topic by the same authors (however, a SCA poster by other authors is considered prior art and should be cited as such).
Poster abstracts should be sent to the poster chair Alexandre Mercier-Aubin at alexandre.mercier-aubin(a)etsmtl.ca
Submissions must be camera-ready, with author names and affiliations listed. The review process will be single-blind.
Poster abstract submissions should consist of a PDF paper according to the ACM article format. Submissions are permitted to be up to two pages in length, written and presented in English.
Supplementary material such as videos may also be submitted electronically and will be made available to reviewers. All supplementary materials must be submitted as a single zip file (size up to 500MB).
Registration:
To meet the cost of the conference, one full registration is required for each accepted paper and poster.
See you at SCA in Vancouver,

Dear Colleagues,
We are happy to announce that the annual Eurographics Symposium on Visual
Computing for Biology and Medicine (EG VCBM) will be hosted by TU Delft,
Netherlands, on October 2-3, 2025. Note that all accepted full papers and
survey papers will be published as journal publications in Computers and
Graphics!
== Aims and Scope ==
Work presented at the Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biology
and Medicine EG VCBM [http://vcbm.org/] should reflect the state of the art
in visual computing and its applications in biology and medicine. VCBM’s
scope encompasses all aspects of visual computing research, technological
development, and practices in medicine and life sciences. Relevant topics
include the acquisition, processing, visualization, and interpretation of
image data in biology and medicine, and the visual analysis and
communication of life science data.
== Submission types for VCBM 2025 ==
Submissions for this year’s meeting include short, full, and survey papers.
Please see the previous Computers & Graphics special issue [
https://www.sciencedirect.com/special-issue/10S5T4911MR] and previous EG
VCBM proceedings [https://diglib.eg.org/handle/10.2312/463] for examples of
published papers. We encourage authors to provide supporting information in
the form of video and other media. The deadline for full and survey paper
submissions is May 2, 2025. Please note that this is one month earlier than
in previous years. Furthermore, all accepted full papers and surveys will
be featured in a special issue of the journal Computers & Graphics (C&G),
necessitating a significantly advanced submission deadline. Full Papers
should describe original, application-oriented research that advances the
fusion of visual computing methods within medicine and biology. Accepted
work will focus on a well-defined biological or medical problem and
demonstrate significant innovation or improvement in visual computing.
Surveys are long-form submissions addressing new and emerging topics in
visual computing, biology, and medicine.
== Topics ==
All aspects relating to the development, application, and practices of
visual computing in the life sciences are relevant to the meeting. These
include:
* Visual computing solutions designed for use by medical, biomedical, and
biological practitioners, researchers, and educators.
* The use of eXtended Reality (e.g., for surgical procedures, molecular
visualization, rehabilitation, and therapy).
* Approaches for processing, visual analysis, and communication of data
from new or challenging modalities (e.g., real-time ultrasound, CyTOF,
Spectroscopy, layer fMRI, single-cell and spatial-omics, environmental
monitoring).
* Visual computing approaches incorporating artificial intelligence (AI)
and explainable AI (XAI). Including but not limited to XAI methods and
approaches designed for clinical support on individual and cohort
electronic health records
* Visual computing solutions that support new approaches for modeling and
simulation with applications in medicine and biology.
* Workflows and processes leveraging visual computing to facilitate
interdisciplinary collaboration in biology and medicine.
* Visualization and visual storytelling methods designed to communicate
healthcare data to patients and laymen, supporting diagnoses interpretation
and doctor-patient relationship
We encourage the use of digital videos to support all submissions. Please
use only the most common video codecs, such as MP4 H.264, to maximize the
chances that the reviewers can view them.
== 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 C&G
LaTeX style [1], including all images and references). Papers should only
be as long as their content justifies. 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 content.
Authors have to anonymize their submissions. Please follow the instructions
[2] in the guide for authors of Computers & Graphics.

== Surveys ==
We do not impose strict maximum lengths for papers submitted to the survey
track. However, it is unusual for surveys to exceed 20 pages (in C&G LaTeX
style [3], including all images and references). Authors are encouraged to
use supplementary material, such as videos, to provide extra content.

== Short Paper & Posters ==
EG VCBM 2025 will also feature a short paper track and a poster and demos
program, the details of which will be announced in a separate call.
== Submission Instructions ==
Full and survey papers must be submitted using the Editorial Manager for
Computers & Graphics [5]. Please note that, in contrast to previous years,
we are introducing a mandatory abstract submission (similar to EuroVis or
VIS conferences) where the authors are required to submit the paper
abstract one week prior to the submission deadline. For abstract
submission, the SRM [6] system needs to be used. This means you have to use
two systems for your submission: SRM for abstract submission and Editorial
Manager for Computers & Graphics for full paper submission. The same
applies to Surveys. Instructions regarding the submission process can be
found on our website [7]. We remark that submitting a paper without prior
abstract submission will lead to desk rejection.
