MICCAI 2018 Workshop and Challenges in Computational Precision Medicine


The Computational Precision Medicine (CPM) 2018 will be held on September 16, in Granada (Spain), in conjunction with MICCAI 2018. It will consist of a morning workshop and afternoon challenges. (further details will be provided in early June)

Registration: Participants of CPM workshop and/or challenges may choose to register for the entire MICCAI conference or register at a reduced fee only for this event, listed under Satellite Events on MICCAI 2018.

Note: Registration to the workshop/challenge sessions on Sept 16 is a prerequisite for participation in the test phase of the challenge. Contestants should provide proof of registration in order to be allowed into the test phase of each challenge.
