CinC 2009 Home

About the Conference:
The Computers in Cardiology conference provides an international forum for scientific presentations focusing on computer applications in clinical cardiology and cardiovascular research. The conference fosters interdisciplinary discussions and collaboration between physicians, engineers, physicists, biologists, computer scientists and others engaged in research in this area.

The main topics of this year’s conference are: Arrhythmias, Bio-Informatics, Signal Processing, Nanotechnology, Single and Multi-modal Imaging and image processing, Monitoring & devices, Tissue and whole organ Electrophysiology, Molecular Techniques in Cardiology, Modeling & Simulation, Cellular and ion channel function, Biomechanics & flow, Regulation of the cardiovascular system, and Ischemia and failure.

The scientific sessions of the conference include oral and poster presentations, the Rosanna Degani Young Investigators Award competition and the Computers in Cardiology/PhysioNet Challenge 2009. Abstracts must be submitted online by May 8, 2009 at http://www.cinc.org. Authors with accepted abstracts for an oral or a poster presentation will submit at the time of the conference their full manuscript of 4 pages that will be published in the conference proceedings.

Rosanna Degani Young Investigator Award
Computers in Cardiology has instituted an annual award to encourage young investigators and provide a living memorial to Rosanna Degani. The competition for the 2009 Rosanna Degani Young Investigator Award will be open to persons under 36 years of age and in "training status" at the submission deadline of May 8, 2009. The candidates are required to submit both an abstract and a full manuscript, written as directed in the author's kit, by that date. All valid applications will result in a 50% reduction in the registration fee, and the four finalists will receive 100% paid registration plus some travel support. For more details see http://www.cinc.org.

Computers in Cardiology / PhysioNet Challenge 2009
Beginning in 2000, Computers in Cardiology conferences have annually issued a PhysioNet Challenge in cooperation with PhysioNet, part of the NIH sponsored Research Resource for Complex Physiologic Signals. As in past years, there will be an exciting new PhysioNet 2009 Challenge. This event invites researchers to tackle clinically interesting problems that are unsolved or not well solved. Data will be available for downloading at the end of 2008. Abstracts describing your results must be submitted by May 8, 2009, and accepted papers will be presented at the scientific sessions in 2009. Valuable prizes will be awarded!
