MICCAI 2025 Eve KAIST Day Successfully Held < Scene of the KAIST Day Symposium Lectures > KAIST announced on the September 23rd that the 'KAIST Day' special symposium, held on the eve of 'MICCAI 2025' at the Jeong Geun-mo Conference Hall of the KAIST Academic and Cultural Center on September 22, was successfully held with the attendance of more than 30 overseas scholars and 200 domestic researchers and students. This event was a special program prepared to commemorate the hosting of MICCAI 2025 (The 28th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention, Conference Chair: Professor Jina Park of KAIST School of Computing), the world's largest medical imaging conference. It was sponsored by the KAIST College of Engineering and Daejeon City, and was held under the theme of "From Insight to Intervention: Intelligent Imaging in Biomedicine." KAIST and world-class scholars gathered to share the latest research results combining medical imaging and artificial intelligence, and to have an in-depth discussion on the future direction of next-generation medical technology, encompassing diagnosis and treatment. Seven world-renowned scholars from the Americas, Europe, and Asia introduced their latest research, and about 30 overseas scholars toured KAIST's advanced medical imaging infrastructure and sought possibilities for collaboration by interacting with domestic researchers. In addition, attending domestic researchers and students had the opportunity for collaboration and international joint research through a networking session. < A group photo from KAIST Day with President Kwang Hyung Lee and Conference Chair Jina Park > This event provided an opportunity for domestic researchers to meet world-class scholars ahead of the opening of MICCAI 2025 and served as a starting point and symbolic place for KAIST and Daejeon City to foster Korea as a global hub for medical AI research. The event was planned and moderated by Professor Seungryong Cho and Associate Vice President Hyunju Lee, and was composed of four sessions. First, Professor Hyunwook Park introduced the history and development of medical imaging research at KAIST. Following this, in the "AI for Diagnosis & Disease Understanding" session, Professors Anne Martel, Kenji Suzuki, Hayit Greenspan, and Dimitris Metaxas presented their latest research on AI-based medical imaging, including cancer diagnosis, early detection, rare disease analysis, and multi-modal fusion. In the next "Imaging Intelligence for Intervention" session, Professors Nasir Navab, Yongkwan Park, James Ji, Leo Joskowicz, and Hyunmin Bae shared clinical application cases such as AR/VR surgical assistance, ultra-high-resolution imaging, atlas-based analysis, surgical planning support, and personalized treatment with neuroimaging. Each presentation demonstrated the possibilities of future medical imaging expanding beyond diagnosis to treatment and personalized medicine, and active exchanges continued through discussions and Q&A. After the lectures, overseas researchers toured KAIST's advanced infrastructure and conducted in-depth discussions with domestic researchers. In addition, with the support of NVIDIA, the "NVIDIA Isaac for Healthcare Hands-on Lab" was held, allowing researchers and students to directly experience the latest AI medical platform. < Invited speakers and attendees of the symposium > Professor Jina Park of the KAIST School of Computing and Conference Chair of MICCAI 2025 said, "MICCAI is the world's top-level medical AI conference with a focus on clinical application. We organized this event to introduce KAIST's challenging research to the international community and to create new synergy through academic exchange. We expect MICCAI 2025, which will be held from the 23rd to the 27th at the Daejeon Convention Center, to become a representative international academic event for Daejeon, with more than 3,200 people registered." KAIST President Kwang Hyung Lee said, "The hosting of MICCAI 2025 is an achievement that shows the international status of Korean science and technology. In particular, this pre-conference symposium held at KAIST was a meaningful event where world-class scholars gathered to discuss the future of medical imaging and AI, and it was an opportunity to once again confirm KAIST's status. KAIST will continue to take the lead in research and education that contributes to the promotion of human health by expanding global cooperation." ※ MICCAI 2025 Website: https://conferences.miccai.org/2025/en/
