The organization of each challenge is unique. The tasks, metrics, participation requirements, and important dates are given on the challenge website. In general, each challenge is a combination of a contest and a workshop. The contest involves processing ground-truth data and is held during the months preceding the conference. During the conference workshop, additional data may need to be processed, participants will have the opportunity to present their methods, and all attendees will be invited to discuss the results.

We look forward to your participation in the ISBI Grand Challenges!
