Recently, at the much-anticipated 2024 International Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention Society (MICCAI) Annual Meeting, Chinese scholar Wang Xin successfully won the Young Scientist Award for his outstanding research results. This honor not only highlights Wang Xin's profound attainments in the field of medical image computing, but also wins high praise for Chinese scholars in the international arena.
The MICCAI Young Scientist Award recognizes the most innovative and highest quality papers presented at the MICCAI main conference. It is reported that Xin Wang's research paper “Ordinal Learning: Longitudinal Attention Alignment Model for Predicting Time to Future Breast Cancer Events from Mammograms”, as the first author, was presented at the MICCAI2024 made a big splash and successfully received the CCFB category recommendation, an honor that is undoubtedly an extremely high recognition of his research work. The paper was selected from more than 3,000 submissions, with a win rate of only an early 10%, demonstrating the uniqueness and importance of its research.
