[stoeltze]

Dear colleagues,

we would like to draw your attention to the CFP of the "Dirk Bartz Prize
for Visual Computing in Medicine and Life Sciences 2021 (Eurographics
Medical Prize)".

https://www.eurovis.org/index.php/awards/

The prize used to be co-located with the Eurographics Conference. Since
this year, it will be co-located with EuroVis and it is broadened to
include contributions in life sciences. 

Best regards,

DIRK BARTZ PRIZE FOR VISUAL COMPUTING IN MEDICINE AND LIFE SCIENCES 2021
(EUROGRAPHICS MEDICAL PRIZE) 

Submission Deadline: February 12, 2021 

Notification: March 26, 2021 

Camera-Ready: April 23, 2021 

Talk at Conference and Award: June 14-18, 2021 

The Eurographics Association organizes a biannual competition, to
acknowledge the contribution of computer graphics and visualization
techniques in medicine and life sciences, and to encourage further
development. Originally called "Eurographics Medical Prize", the
competition was renamed to "Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing in
Medicine" in 2010---in honor of Dirk Bartz, who passed away in March
2010. Dirk Bartz was a highly recognized and enthusiastic scientist,
teacher, and promoter of Visual Computing in Medicine; furthermore, he
was an active member of the Eurographics Association, and Chair of the
EG Medical Prize, in 2007 and 2009. Before, the prize was co-located
with the Eurographics Conference. Since this year, it will be co-located
with EuroVis and it is broadened to include contributions in life
sciences.  

CALL 

Submissions to the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing in Medicine and
Life Sciences 2021 are being invited from researchers and developers,
who can demonstrate that a particular benefit in a medical/life sciences
application has resulted from the use of visual computing technology
that they have produced/developed. We welcome submissions from all areas
of visual computing---examples include the use of new data visualization
techniques, interaction methods, or virtual/augmented environments.
Entries typically summarize a body of research and/or development that
has been conducted over the course of a project, PhD thesis, etc. and
weight is put on demonstrating the medical/life sciences impact of the
work. 

WINNERS 

The top three winning entries of the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual
Computing in Medicine and Life Sciences 2021 will receive a prize and
their submission will be published in the "Short Papers and Medical
Prize Awards" digital media proceedings, and in the EG Digital Library.
The judging panel will select the winning entry, based on its
medical/life sciences value, use of visual computing methods, and
novelty. All three winning teams will have an opportunity to present
their results at EuroVis 2021, which means that at least one author of
each winning team must register and attend, to present the results. 

The Hall of Fame [1] documents previous recipients of the prize. 

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES 

Submissions will be made electronically through the Precision Conference
System [2].  

Submitted written entries have to be prepared as papers of up to 4 pages
(+1 extra page for references) and must be formatted according to the
conference template [3]. 

The submission of complementary material like videos, demo applications,
and references to additional publications of the authors, theses, etc.
is highly welcome.
