The hotel is the same as last time (NH Imperial Playa) and registration fee is 475 Euro and will cover breakfast, lunch, coffee for the week, as always.

Preparation: To prepare, we will be holding weekly meetings at 10am on Tuesdays, starting November 19th, 2024 and ending on January 21st. (No calls on Dec 24 and 31). Please join at this link in order to discuss your ideas for project(s) for the week and to determine the fit between your goals and the other participants of the event.

Background: The Project Week is a week-long hackathon of hands on activity in which medical image computing researchers create solutions using the open source image computing platform, 3D Slicer, and VTK, ITK, CMake, and CDash libraries as well as OHIF, Cornerstone, dcmjs, vtkjs, itkjs, DICOMweb, Girder and related web technologies. Participants work collaboratively on solutions that lie at the interfaces of the fields of computer science, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, and medicine. In contrast to conferences and workshops where the primary focus is to report results, the objective of the ProjectWeek is to provide a venue for creators of medical image computing open-source software creators to collaboratively work.
