AUTHOR (ONE-PAGE ABSTRACT) GUIDELINES AND INSTRUCTIONS
Aims and Scope of the One-Page Abstracts Track for ISBI 2025
The One-Page Abstracts Track at ISBI 2025 is designed to achieve two primary objectives:
1. Fostering Scientific Communication and Biomedical-Clinical Engagement:
- This track aims to provide a platform for sharing late-breaking scientific discoveries, encouraging the participation of a broader audience of imaging scientists and clinicians, particularly those from fields such as biology, radiology, physics, oncology, and computational imaging.
- It seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and cross-fertilization by highlighting innovative ideas and findings that complement the themes of the regular track. Specifically, this includes:
a) Identify meaningful and useful clinical challenges, datasets, etc.
b) Stimulating future algorithmic, mathematical, and computational advancements within the traditional ISBI community.
c) Promoting the adoption and integration of advanced algorithms into practical applications in biomedical imaging.
Authors whose full-length papers were not accepted in the regular submission track but received favorable reviews are welcome to present their work as a one-page abstract.
2. Showcasing Published Work from Top-Tier Technical and Clinical Journals:
- In addition to late-breaking research, this track provides an opportunity for the presentation of noteworthy papers recently published in leading journals across the fields of biomedical imaging, computational imaging, radiology, oncology, etc.
- Eligible papers include those published in IEEE-sponsored journals (supported by the IEEE Signal Processing Society and IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society) as well as other top-tier clinical journals in the domain, such as:
a) Radiology
b) Medical Image Analysis
c) Nature and the Nature series journals
d) Science and the Science series journals
e) Other prominent journals in clinical medicine. - Peer-reviewed papers published in these journals during 2024 that align with the domains of biomedical imaging and image analysis are eligible for presentation at ISBI 2025.
To request the presentation of such papers, authors must submit a one-page abstract summarizing the published work through the ISBI 2025 submission portal by the stated deadline. All submissions will be subject to space availability and approval by the ISBI Program Chairs.
Through this track, ISBI 2025 aims to bridge communities, stimulate innovation, and promote the dissemination and practical application of cutting-edge methodologies and findings in biomedical imaging. This expanded scope underscores ISBI’s commitment to being the premier forum for advancing bioimaging research and practice.
Why Should You Submit an Abstract to ISBI?
Consider submitting an abstract to ISBI if any of the following apply to you:
- You are conducting cutting-edge research in basic biology, biomedicine, clinical practice, or related fields.
- Your work involves advanced imaging techniques in biology or medicine, and you are eager to share your findings with an interdisciplinary audience.
- You are a clinician seeking to learn about state-of-the-art algorithms in biomedical imaging and explore how these techniques could empower your studies or clinical applications.
- You are interested in networking with leading experts in biomedical image analysis, computational methods, and imaging sciences.
- You wish to present your recent work on ISBI-related themes, particularly to highlight challenges or opportunities within your application area for the biomedical imaging community.
Additionally, if you are the author of a journal paper published in 2024—in an IEEE-sponsored journal or a top-tier scientific or clinical journal (e.g., Radiology, Medical Image Analysis, Nature Methods, or JAMA)—and your work has not yet been presented to the ISBI community, this is your chance to gain visibility for your published research. By submitting an abstract based on your journal paper, you can bring your findings to a broader audience of experts in imaging and analysis.
Unique Benefits of Participating at ISBI
- Engage with an interdisciplinary community: Meet physicists, biologists, clinicians, engineers, and computational scientists, fostering cross-domain collaborations.
- Learn from thought leaders: Attend plenary and keynote talks, tutorials, and special sessions covering both foundational topics and cutting-edge advancements in biomedical imaging.
- Build collaborations: Leverage networking opportunities to connect with experts in imaging acquisition, processing, and analysis to drive forward your research and applications.
- Experience ISBI at a world-class venue: ISBI 2025 will be hosted at the Texas Medical Center (TMC), the largest medical center in the world, offering a unique setting to bridge the gap between cutting-edge computational imaging and real-world clinical applications.
Whether you are an academic, a clinician, or an industry professional, ISBI provides a unique platform to share your work, learn from others, and engage with the global biomedical imaging community.

- ISBI 2025 will continue to use the single-blind reviewing process for one-page abstracts.
- Only one-page abstract submissions will be considered. Any manuscripts that exceed the one-page limit will be rejected.
- Abstract submissions will only be considered for poster presentation.
- If your abstract focuses on a paper that was published in a journal sponsored or co-sponsored by EMBS and SPS or other journals, then:
a. The abstract title should clearly start with the words “Journal Paper: …“
b. The text should clearly mention the journal paper, state that the paper was published in 2024, and include a full citation for the journal paper. - To submit an abstract, visit: https://edas.info/N32831
- Abstracts will be reviewed for suitability by related experts from the Program Committee and the Scientific Review Committee.
- Accepted abstracts presented at the meeting will have their title and author names published in the conference proceedings. The abstract itself will not be published in IEEE Xplore or indexed otherwise.
- Approved requests for presentation must have one author/presenter registered for ISBI as per the 2025 registration rates.
Final Submission
Prepare a presentation following the posted guidelines.
Disclosure of AI tools
If AI tools were used in preparing this abstract, please specify the tool name(s), the purpose (e.g., drafting, editing, figure creation), and the extent of use (e.g., partial edits, full drafts). Additionally, describe the steps taken to verify the accuracy and originality of the content and confirm whether the use of AI will be disclosed in the presentation or paper.
Compliance with Ethical Standards
ISBI supports the standard requirements on the use of animal and human subjects for scientific and biomedical research. For all ISBI-2025 papers reporting data from studies involving human and/or animal subjects, formal review and approval, or formal review and waiver, by an appropriate institutional review board or ethics committee is required and should be stated in the papers. For those investigators whose institutions do not have formal ethics review committees, the principles outlined in the Helsinki Declaration of 1975, as revised in 2000, should be followed.
Irrespective of whether animal/human data was used, authors should include a statement on ethical compliance in their manuscript.
Conflicts of Interest
IEEE-ISBI supports the disclosure of financial support for the project as well as any financial and personal relationships of the author that could create even the appearance of bias in the published work.
