[Ieee_vis] [CfP] VCBM 2014 - 2nd Call for Papers

[Katja Bühler]

      Eurographic Workshop on Visualization in Biology and Medicine 2014


      2nd Call for Papers

*Aims and Scope*

EG VCBM is a bi-annual event addressing state-of-the-art visual 
computing research with a strong focus on applications in biology and 
medicine. EG VCBM is unique, as it provides a highly interdisciplinary 
forum for experts from computer graphics, visualization, computer 
vision, visual analytics, human computer interfaces and end users from 
biology and medicine jointly working on next generation visual computing 
solutions for healthcare and the biotechnology sector.

EG VCBM solicits the submission of original application-oriented 
research papers that advance the fusion of visual computing methods 
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.

*Suggested topics* for papers include, but are not limited to:

  * Visual computing solutions for medical applications like radiology,
    interventional medicine, pathology, anatomy and medical education
  * Visual computing solutions for applications to support biomedical
    research in systems biology, omics, molecular pathology,
    neuroanatomy, biomedical imaging,.....
  * Survey papers on visual computing in biology and medicine

*Methods *might include, but are not limited to

  * Visualization and analysis of all kinds of biomedical (image) data
  * Visualization, mining and analysis of biomedical data collections
  * Fusion, analysis and visualization of heterogeneous and/or
    multi-source data
  * Multi-scale methods and data structures for large data
  * Interaction and design of visual computing workflows in medicine and
    biology
  * Data tracking and registration
  * Data reconstruction and geometry extraction

*Information for Authors*

All submitted papers will run through a one-stage peer-review process. 
Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and will appear in the 
EG-published printed conference proceedings. The authors of the best 
three papers will be invited to submit an extended article version of 
their paper as journal publication to Computer Graphics Forum 
<http://www.wiley.com/bw/journal.asp?ref=0167-7055>.

*Submission Format*

Papers can be up to 8 pages, while posters should be submitted as a 1 
page abstract. They should be prepared in the supplied Eurographics 
style <https://srm.eg.org/SRM_VCBM12/templates/latex.zip> and have to be 
submitted via theonline submission system 
<https://srmv2.eg.org/COMFy/Conference/VCBM_2014>. Login with your 
existing SRM account, or create a new one using the relevant links. 
Detailed help on the submission system can be found in the SRM manual 
<https://wiki.eg.org/SRMWiki/index.php/Main_Page>. Please note that the 
reviewing process will be double-blind, so take care to anonymize your 
submission.
