This edition of the Congress is organized under the presidence of Catherine Guettier SFP (French Society of Pathology), honorary president, Etienne Martin
with the contribution of ADICAP (Association for Developing Informatics in Cytology and Anatomic Pathology), Frédérique Capron and GFHC (French Group for Cellular Haematology), Xavier Troussard.
 

Abstracts submission deadline: 20 January 2014

- Contributors are invited to submit an abstract (max. 400 words) written in English for oral and poster presentations on all research fields related to digital pathology, telepathology, image analysis. Specific topics include (and are not limited to) the topics from the provisional agenda underneath.

- Submission should be done electronically at the following link:  www.digitalpathology2014.org before 20 January 2014

- In addition, contributors who also aim at individually Pubmed indexed articles shall submit an extended abstract (less than 1500 words). Selected articles will be published either in "Diagnostic Pathology" (editor-in-chief Klaus Kayser, co-chairs Catherine Bor, Philippe Camparo and Myriam Oger) or for computer science oriented articles in the "Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics" Elsevier journal (editor-in-chief Daniel Racoceanu, co-chair Philippe Belhomme)

NEW! Pecha kucha - a great opportunity for young scientists and creative senior researchers!
Pecha kucha is a special form for very dynamic and exciting presentations. You will have the chance to present your topic/idea/projects (no limits!) for discussion, idea mining and potential collaborators.
The rules of Pecha kucha are very simple: you have 20 slides, for each slide exactly 20 seconds to speak (for the complete presentation 6 min 40 sec). For this session maximal seven words per slide are allowed, you have to use images, figures and diagrams to present you scientific topic, question, idea and/or opinion. This strict format keeps presentations creative, concise and fast-paced and avoids the "Powerpoint-Death"Â (more details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PechaKucha).
Please send only your name and title of the Pecha kucha-Presentation to: thomas.schrader@computer.org - no abstracts are necessary.
