OVERVIEW

This conference aims to set the collaborative tone for a year of activities on Medical Imaging by bringing together mathematicians, researchers in health sciences, and health care manufacturers. A special effort will be made to support the participation by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, who may then be excited to take part in the numerous educational opportunities planned throughout the year.

The main goals of the conference will be to:

  • Showcase some of the major recent advances in the mathematics of Medical Imaging, and find ways in which these can have significant impact in future clinical applications.
  • Bring to the attention of mathematicians interesting new problems and help define mathematical structures yet to be understood.
  • Establish research and training interconnections with the large Medical Imaging community in Ontario and British Columbia.
  • Establish research relationships with industrial partners interested in the discovery of novel imaging techniques and instrumentation.

The conference will include:

- Distinguished Lectures on Inverse Problems, Medical Image Analysis and Patient Specific Modeling,
- Academia- Industry Connector Event on Mathematical Challenges in Medical Imaging,
- Survey lectures by leading biomedical researchers from Ontario and British Columbia,
- Special Sessions (invited and contributed talks) on recent research advances,
- Postdoctoral Fellow/Graduate Student Research Poster Competition.

FORMAT

There will be 4 (45-minute) plenary talks each morning. Afternoons will be devoted to Special Sessions, the Connector Event and the Postdoctoral Fellow/Graduate Student Research Poster Competition.
