Welcome to the web page for the 23rd Project Week!

The 23rd Project Week open source hackathon is being held in conjunction with the 30th International Conference on Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery (CARS) and the IPCAI 2016 conferences in Heidelberg, Germany. Please go through this page for information, and if you have questions, please contact Tina Kapur, PhD.

Background

The NA-MIC Project Week is a hands on activity in which medical image computing researchers interested in open science gather twice a year to create solutions using the image computing platform 3D Slicer, and its components VTK, ITK, CMake. Founded in 2005, along with the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC) which was chartered with building a computational infrastructure to support biomedical research as part of the NIH funded NCBC program, the Project Week has become one of the major events in the calendars for several NIH funded Center efforts. It is held in the summer in conjunction with the CARS conference, typically during the second half of June, and in the winter at MIT, typically in early January.

The participating community has grown and since August 2014, Project Week is a MICCAI endorsed event. During Project Week, participants work collaboratively on open-science solutions for problems that lie on the interfaces of the fields of computer science, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, and medicine. In contrast to conventional conferences and workshops where the primary focus is to report on progress, the primary focus of a Project Week is to make progress on projects. The objective of the Project Week is to provide a venue for this community of medical open source software creators. Project Weeks are open to all, are publicly advertised, and are funded through fees paid by the attendees. Participants are encouraged to stay for the entire event.

Project Week activities: Everyone shows up with a project which has been discussed with participants in preceding 6 weeks via conference calls. The projects include platform work, algorithm development, biomedical application. The first day of the Project Week begins with a 2-hour introductory meeting where each project and team is introduced to the participants in-person, and is followed by a mix of working sessions and breakout sessions on special topics.

Participants in Project week include NAC, NCIGT, QIICR, and OCAIRO.

Project Weeks are led by Tina Kapur, PhD.

Please make sure that you are on the na-mic-project-week mailing list.

Projects

Topics

The major topics for this week are:

  • Worldwide Ultrasound Navigation: Over the last several PWs, an international group has emerged for collaborative specification and development of ultrasound based navigation for surgical and interventional radiology applications. This group represents the leadership of ultrasound navigation technology from Queens University (PLUS library: Andras Lasso, Tamas Ungi, Csaba Pinter, Gabor Fichtinter), Montreal Neurologic Institute (Simon Drouin), Brigham and Women's Hospital/HMS (William Wells, Steve Pieper, Sarah Frisken), Robarts University (Adam Rankin), Trondheim University and SINTEF (CustusX: Christian Askeland, Frank Lindseth).

Logistics

  • Dates: Monday June 20th to Saturday June 25th, 2016, with one day break on Tuesday June 21st to attend IPCAI.
  • Location: Heidelberg, Germany.
    • Getting to Heidelberg: Most will fly into Frankfurt Main International (FRA). At the airport look for "long distance trains". There you can buy a ticket from the machine to Heidelberg Hauptbahnhof (main station), around EUR 25. It usually takes less than an hour, with a change in Mannheim to a regional train. https://www.bahn.de . If you arrive on Sunday you can take a bus from the station to the Old Town or where your hotel is. Heidelberg is pretty small, look for directions on Google Maps. If you arrive on Monday see below on how to get to DKFZ directly.
    • Monday at German Cancer Research Center - DKFZ
      • Enter through the main lobby ( just north of https://goo.gl/maps/e3ZbcsM5KC82, you can't miss it, it's the tallest building on campus with a big "dkfz." on top). The meeting room is on the 8th floor (H824, "Glaskasten", "glass box"). We will leave some instructions how to get there at the reception. The meeting time in the lobby will be 8:45am for those who wish to be at the meeting room by 9am. Official activities will start at noon with lunch.
      • To get to DKFZ in the morning you can use the Google Maps link above, public transport information is available there. For people staying in the Old Town, near Bismarckplatz or coming from the station it will be most likely Bus #32, exit at stop "Chirurgische Klinik", which is the second one after crossing the Neckar river. More detailed timetables at the local transportation services VRN. If you are up early there is also a nice walk along the river.
    • Tuesday there is no organized Project Week activity due to IPCAI @ CARS
      • Suggested place for meetings is the Marstall student center (map)
    • Wednesday-Saturday at the Congress Hall of CARS.
  • REGISTRATION: Please register for the CARS conference at http://www.cars-int.org/cars_2016/registration.html
  • Registration Fee: Euro 650 (after April 26, 2016)
  • Hotel: After registration, you can book hotels using the CARS organization at http://germany.nethotels.com/info/heidelberg/events/cars/default_en.htm or on your own. Please remember that Project Week starts on Monday June 20th, even though the formal CARS/IPCAI program starts a day later, so you will need to pay attention while booking the hotel room.
  • Preparatory Conference Calls:
    • 800-501-8979. The pin is 7327389. (International dialing instructions are available here)
    • Call #1 Tuesday, May 10, 3pm Boston time.
    • Call #2 Tuesday, May 17, 3pm Boston time.
