The German Computer Society (GI)’s working group on Visual Computing in Biology and Medicine will hold the MedVis and BioVis Workshop in conjunction with VCBM 2025 on Wednesday, October 1. The meeting is open to all everyone interested, GI members and non-members. The meeting aims to foster exchange among computer scientists, engineers, and natural scientists. The focus will be on image analysis, visualization, and interaction techniques for image-based diagnostics, computer-assisted therapy planning, and related software tools. More information can be found at https://www.fg-medvis.de/workshop-next.html.
The workshop will be held in the Aula Building of TU Delft in Commissiekamer 3 (Mekelweg 5, 2628 CC Delft).
