Accomodation in Delft

We’ve compiled a list of recommended hotels for your stay during VCBM 2008 in Delft.  Delft, being small and picturesque, has no large hotels, hence the fact that our list also consists of small and picturesque hotels. :)

Some of the hotels have made block reservations for VCBM, but to make use of this you have to book before September 5.  For more information, go to the VCBM accomodation page!

VCBM 2008 open for submission!

After a fantastic Eurovis 2008 in Eindhoven this year, we are very happy to announce that VCBM 2008 is now officially open for paper submission.  Please go to the submission info page for more details on submitting your high-quality articles.

You’ll also note that the VCBM 2008 homepage has been shortened significantly by breaking out components into separate pages on the pages menu on the right.

Official Eurographics approval

VCBM will henceforth be known as EG VCBM, or the Eurographics Workshop on Visual Computing for Biomedicine!  This official sponsorship is an important milestone for us.  In other exciting news, the VCBM IPC (international program committee) has been finalized.  We are greatly honoured by the high calibre of scientists that have agreed to serve on the IPC.  See the updated CFP / flyer on the VCBM 2008 web page for more details!

Welcome to VCBM

This will be the home of the brand-new series of Visual Computing for Biomedicine (VCBM) workshops, targeted at bringing together medical visualization, medical image processing and biomedical research communities. If all goes according to plan, our first workshop will take place in October of 2008 in the picturesque city of Delft, The Netherlands. For more info, go to the VCBM 2008 site!
