Medical Image Understanding and Analysis (MIUA) is a UK-based meeting for the communication of research related to image analysis and its application to medical imaging and biomedicine. Scotland’s capital city is uniquely inspirational. Not only for its fabled loveliness, but also for its associations – past and present – with innovation, creativity, discovery and progress. Our chair, Dr Maria del C. Valdés Hernández and Co-Chair, Dr Víctor González-Castro along with the remaining members of our local organising committee, look forward to welcoming guests to Edinburgh for the Medical Image Understanding and Analysis (MIUA) conference.
