Computer Vision News 48 MICCAI 2023 - Preview What can you tell the community about MICCAI 2023 at this point? Tanveer: As I see it, we’re on schedule for our operations so far. Things are working well. We’vejust released acceptance of our papers after the review process. This year we had over 2300 submissions. In the end, we accepted 730 papers with a 32% acceptance rate with 308 of them being early accepts. As you know, one of the new thingswe’reintroducing this year is a clinical program in MICCAI. We’re aiming for two clinical sessions: one focused on MIC and one on CAI topics, in addition to CLINICCAI, which is concurrently held on day 2 of the conference. We hope this will increase the attendance of clinicians and result in increased sponsorship from the industry, where they see more of a role for clinicians to influence their products. The rest of the program is shaping up as well with the satellite program already announced. Different committees, like the RISE committee, the Women in MICCAI committee, and the MICCAI Student Board, have all been drafting their programs already. Another new formatwe’ve introduced this year is a dual track, which hopefullywon’t drag programs to the end of the day or late into the night. We hope to offer some new features with the dual-track format. Is the hope that CLINICCAI will increase discussions between academia and doctors? Tanveer: Yes, both CLINICCAI and the focus in the main conference of two sessions will aim to do this This year, we have three clinical chairs for the first time helping drive that program.
