MIUA 2021 - CALL FOR PAPERS (Deadline Extension: 28th March 2021)
25th MEDICAL IMAGE UNDERSTANDING AND ANALYSIS CONFERENCE
12th - 14th July 2021, Oxford, United Kingdom

MIUA 2021 is the 25th anniversary conference of the Medical Image Understanding and Analysis series organised in the United Kingdom for communicating research progress within the community interested in biomedical image analysis. Its goals are the dissemination and discussion of research in biomedical image analysis and machine learning and aims to encourage the growth and to raise the profile of this multi-disciplinary field.

The conference features keynote speakers, oral, and poster presentations.

Due to future uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have regretfully decided to cancel the physical meeting this year and move MIUA 2021 to a virtual context. The safety and well-being of MIUA participants is our top priority, therefore we believe that fully virtual meeting is the only viable option to run this conference smoothly.

As MIUA 2021 goes virtual this year, we will be using a virtual events platform across all three days, which will enable all of us to meet virtually, present the accepted papers and moderate live question and answer sessions, and deliver associated seminars and tutorials. The detailed schedule and guidelines about presentation will be released in due course. The conference registration fee will be reduced to reflect this change.

We appreciate the work that has gone into preparing contributions, hence we are still welcoming paper submissions until 28th March 2021 using our online submission system. Please note that this deadline is final and no further extensions can be granted at this point. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and accepted articles will be published as MIUA Proceedings by the Springer Publishing Group.


Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to delivering MIUA 2021 in a way that is rewarding for our authors and interesting for the research community as a whole.
