Symposium on Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging SAIMI

Mission

SAIMI brings together the research groups across Switzerland working on artificial intelligence for medical imaging. The aim is a low-threshold, one-day meeting where people present recent advances, exchange ideas, and discuss both institution-specific and field-wide challenges, from transparency, interpretability and model reliability to the heterogeneity of image acquisition across hospitals, and what stands between a promising method and clinical use.

Early-career researchers and students are explicitly encouraged to present their work, and the program is complemented by keynotes from experienced researchers and by representatives from industry and clinical practice.

How SAIMI works

SAIMI is deliberately lightweight. A permanent steering committee holds continuity: it maintains this site, selects hosts, and hands on an organiser handbook. Each edition is run by a local organising committee at the hosting institution, which owns its own programme, budget and website. At least one organiser carries over between consecutive editions so practical knowledge is not lost.

The symposium is non-archival, attendance is free, and abstracts are reviewed double-blind. SAIMI is endorsed by the MICCAI Society.

SAIMI is free to attend, which is only possible because of our sponsors. Sponsorship is arranged per edition by that year’s organising committee, and typically includes visibility on the edition website and programme, and a booth during the poster sessions.

If your company would like to support an upcoming edition, please get in touch and we are happy to put you in contact with the current organising team.
