I note that Richard will be speaking on the day of the inaugural CLINICCAI event. Can you tell us more about that? The idea of the clinical day (CLINICCAI) is to bring clinicians to our conference to share their translational research experiences and hopefully become active within the community. My hope is that this event will be renewed in the years to come and will be the first of a successful series. Is this similar to the clinical day at CARS? Yes, it’s in the same spirit. It has been organized by a team of clinicians at the IHU Strasbourg, who are our partners as well. It will bring an interesting perspective to our attendees and give the clinicians who attend the full conference a fascinating overview of the breadth of our activities. I’m sure you have convinced most of our readers to sign up now. Is there anything else you can reveal to win over those final few? We have many other events, such as those traditionally organized by the MICCAI Student Board. Students are usually very excited about that – but not only students! Faculty members and other participants enjoy attending their events, including the morning yoga sessions, and the academia and industry event. They will also be holding two webinars, including one on burnout. And for those of us who are no longer students? You can still attend! There is no limit on numbers, so they will be open to everyone. We also have the MICCAI Startup Village with the pitch competition back for another year. Ihope many startups will participate in this event and deliver an exciting speech to present their company. Alongside this, we will be featuring one startup every day in MICCAI Daily. That’s fantastic news! Thank you. What 2 Summary MICCAI 2021 20
