dear Eurographics members,
Eurographics annually grants three PhD thesis awards. They are jointly sponsored by Eurographics and the Computer Graphics Forum Journal.
The aim of the Eurographics best PhD Thesis award is to recognize good thesis work in Europe, to incentivize young researchers, and to offer them the opportunity to publish the state of the art section of their thesis as a STAR in the Computer Graphics Forum Journal.
Eligibility includes a PhD Thesis defended and mainly conducted in Europe or in countries having a Eurographics Chapter or in EG Organizational Member Institutions.
You can either apply yourself if you are eligible, or nominate someone else.
If you saw a great talk, have read a creative paper or were in a PhD committee from a potential candidate, then nominate her/him or encourage her/him to apply! We also wish to favor diversity (both topics and education), inclusion and gender equality.
We would like to receive nominations from as many EU/eligible countries as possible, and hope to have at least one nomination for each eligible country.
The deadline is January 14, 2025 and the submission system is already open

Dear all,
This is a final reminder to register for the CGVC conference<https://cgvc.org.uk/>, hosted by the giCentre at City St George's, University of London (12th - 13th September).
In an earlier email, we said that registration will remain open until 10th September. However, we are needing to finalise bookings at the dinner venue by 4th September.
If you are planning to attend, please register by 4th September at https://cgvc.org.uk/CGVC2024/registration
Additional registrations will be accepted until 10th September, but we cannot guarantee a spot at the conference dinner for those who register after 4th September. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
We have a very exciting programme (https://cgvc.org.uk/CGVC2024/programme) featuring:
* Keynotes from the excellent Petra Isenberg<https://petra.isenberg.cc/> and Rachel McDonnell<https://www.scss.tcd.ie/Rachel.McDonnell/>.
* A special session on Human-centred Decision-Making through Data Visualisation, with talks on cutting-edge EPSRC-funded visualisation research across the UK.
* "Vis in Practice" industry panel, bridging the gap between UK academia and industry folks doing exciting VIS
* Dinner and social events to help connect with researchers at different career stages in the field of visualisation and visual computing.
* giCentre gelato, because what would be a better way to network and explore VIS ideas than a walk by the Thames and some ice cream?!
POSTER P(RE) CYCLING
We encourage all participants to bring a poster to CGVC 2024 as part of our Poster (p)Re-Cycling initiative.
Posters tend to get used once - not any more!
Bring your favourite poster and we will display it at the conference so that participants can learn about what you have been up to and what you have presented elsewhere, or plan to present in the future.
* If you have a poster accepted at CGVC 2024, great - that will do the trick!
* If not, then ...
* if you are going to take a poster to a conference in the future (VIS? VR?) - bring a draft, get feedback for free!
* if you have used a poster somewhere else (EUROVIS? EUROGRAPHICS?), dig it out, bring it along, use it again - choose your favourite - scientific posters only please!
We hope to see everybody show up with a cardboard tube containing an interesting visual account of some computer graphics or visual computing research.
Registration Deadline
Please register by Friday 4th September 2024 at https://cgvc.org.uk/CGVC2024/registration
Visa Letter
If you require a visa letter to attend the conference, please email chairs-cgvc2024(a)eg.org<mailto:chairs-cgvc2024@eg.org>, once you have completed registration.
We look forward to seeing you in London!
Mai, Aidan, and Jason.
Dear All,
we are delighted to announce that the final VMV program is now online:
https://www.gcpr-vmv.de
As you will see, the program includes four keynote lectures, four PI
talks, oral sessions, poster sessions, and spotlight talks.
Furthermore, we offer tutorials on virtual humans, quantum-enhanced
vision and 3D shape analysis. Last but not least, we have a welcome
reception, an industry fair and a gala dinner at the Augustiner.
If you have not done so yet, please do consider registering for a
wonderful event in Munich! Keep in mind that regular registration ends
on September 2^nd .
Looking forward to seeing you in Munich in September!

International Conference on Cyberworlds CW2024 Yamanashi, Japan, October
29-31, 2024
https://cyberworlds2024.yamanashi-u.jp/
In-cooperation with Eurographics Association and ACM SIGGRAPH
Cyberworlds are information spaces and communities that immensely augment the way we interact, participate in business and receive information throughout the world. Cyberworlds seriously impact our lives and the evolution of the world economy by taking such forms as social networking services, 3D shared virtual communities and massively multiplayer online role-playing games. The international conferences on Cyberworlds have being organized annually since 2002 with the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society and selected papers published in multiple journals, including The Visual Computer. The 23rd annual Cyberworlds conference, Cyberworlds 2024, will be held in Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture, which is renowned as the home of Mount Fuji.
Up to 2-page poster papers will also be included in the conference proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society's Conference Publishing Services and indexed by IEEE Xplore and SCOPUS (EI Compendex).
