Bibliographical note
Funding Information:We would like to sincerely thank everyone who contributed to the success of MICCAI 2020 and the quality of its proceedings under the most unusual circumstances of a global pandemic. First and foremost, we thank all authors for submitting and presenting their high-quality work that made MICCAI 2020 a greatly enjoyable and successful scientific meeting. We are also especially grateful to all members of the Program Committee and reviewers for their dedicated effort and insightful feedback throughout the entire paper selection process. We would like to particularly thank the MICCAI society for support, insightful comments, and continuous engagement with organizing the conference. Special thanks go to Kitty Wong, who oversaw the entire process of paper submission, reviews, and preparation of conference proceedings. Without her, we would have not functioned effectively. Given the “new normal”, none of the workshops, tutorials, and challenges would have been feasible without the true leadership of the satellite events organizing team led by Mauricio Reyes: Erik Meijering (workshops), Carlos Alberola-López (tutorials), and Lena Maier-Hein (challenges). Behind the scenes, MICCAI secretarial personnel, Janette Wallace and Johanne Langford, kept a close eye on logistics and budgets, while Mehmet Eldegez and his team at Dekon Congress and Tourism led the professional conference organization, working tightly with the virtual platform team. We also thank our sponsors for financial support and engagement with conference attendees through the virtual platform. Special thanks goes to Veronika Cheplygina for continuous engagement with various social media platforms before and throughout the conference to publicize the conference. We would also like to express our gratitude to Shelley Wallace for helping us in Marketing MICCAI 2020, especially during the last phase of the virtual conference organization.
