We are happy that three submissions of our group were accepted at EuroVis this year:

Gabriel Mistelbauer et al.: Implicit Modeling of Patient-Specific Aortic Dissections with Elliptic Fourier Descriptors

Benedikt Mayer et al.: VEHICLE: Validation and Exploration of the Hierarchical Integration of Conflict Event Data

Pepe Eulzer, Monique Meuschke et al: Visualizing Carotid Blood Flow Simulations for Stroke Prevention


A team lead by Dr. Benjamin Behrendt will be awarded a price at the Dirk Bartz competition, which will be presented at this year’s EuroVis conference. Their contribution describes an explorative system for the visualization of intracranial blood flow and is a joint project between the University of Magdeburg and the Linköping University in Sweden.
Our former staff member Kai Lawonn was selected for the the prestigeous
Lena Spitz was awarded with the Rudolf-Kruse-Price 2020. This award is given annually by the faculty to a student for the best student scholarly publication. Lena submitted her JCARS Paper: Combining Visual Analytics and Case-Based Reasoning for Rupture Risk Assessment of Intracranial Aneurysms, Lena Spitz, Uli Niemann, Oliver Beuing, Belal Neyazi, Erol Sandalcioglu, Bernhard Preim and Sylvia Saalfeld, International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery, 15(9), p. 1525-1535, 2020. which is based on her bachelor thesis that was supervised by Sylvia Saalfeld and Bernhard Preim. Congratulations!
We are happy that Mareen Allgaier joined our team. She will be primarily working with Sylvia Saalfeld and strengthen our activities in neuroradiology and neurosurgery, contributing also to research goals in the research campus STIMULATE.”
