Tutorials on algorithmic and computational tools for biomedical imaging analysis are especially encouraged. All tutorials will run on the first day of the symposium, Tuesday April 18, 2017. Two tutorials will run in parallel in each of the morning and afternoon sessions. The duration of each tutorial will be 3.5 hours, with an intervening 15 minute tea break.
