/// EG VCBM 2012 - Second Call for Papers & Posters /// Eurographics Visual Computing in Biology and Medicine (EG VCBM) /// http://www.vcbm.org/ Quick Facts ============ * Topics: visualization and image analysis in biology and medicine * Deadline: June 29, 2012 * Publication: EG published proceedings, three best papers in Computer Graphics Forum EG VCBM will be held September 27-28, 2012 in Norrköping, Sweden, and addresses state-of-the-art visualization and image analysis research with an application in biology and medicine. EG VCBM solicits the submission of original application-oriented research papers that advance the fusion of visualization and image analysis within imaging-based medicine and biological science. All papers should focus on a well- defined biological or medical problem, and should demonstrate a significant innovation or improvement in visual computing. Covered Topics ============== Suggested topics for submissions include, but are not limited to: * Applications in cardiovascular medicine, radiology, surgery and other medical disciplines. * Applications in cell biology, molecular biology, developmental biology and other biological disciplines. * Geometry reconstruction from image data, such as microscopic or radiological data. * Creation and visual analysis of atlases, databases and ontologies. * Interactive segmentation and registration. * Multi-field/multimodal visualization and processing. * Computer-aided diagnosis and detection. * Visual analysis of gene sequence and gene expression data. * Visual analysis of proteomics and interactomics data. * Processing and analysis of biological pathways and networks. * Visualization and simulation for surgical training. * Intra-operative guidance for surgery. * Perception-based studies with an application in biology or medicine.
