Dear Colleagues,

As Editor-in-Chief of J. Imaging, I am pleased to announce the winners of the J. Imaging 2020–2021 Travel Awards.

The awards have been granted to: Dr. Cameron Kaye and Ms. Alexandra Trujillo.

Cameron Kaye is a recent MD/PhD graduate from the University of Manitoba, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, working within the Price Faculty of Engineering’s Electromagnetic Imaging Laboratory (EIL) in the field of microwave breast imaging. His specific research interests include magnetic contrast enhancement of microwave imaging and its associated clinical applications. He plans to attend URSI GASS 2021 in Rome, Italy, to present the EIL’s research on a new related modality referred to as ferromagnetic resonance imaging (FRI).

Alexandra Trujillo is currently researching deep-learning-based high-performance algorithms for 3D anthropometric reconstruction with applications in biological anthropology, medicine and forensic sciences. She is currently pursuing a PhD at the Imaging Science Laboratory (Universidad Nacional del Sur), and she works for the National Research and Technology Council of Argentina (CONICET) in the Human Evolutionary Biology Research Group of the National Patagonian Center (CENPAT). She would like to attend 3dbody.tech to present body2vec: 3D Point Cloud Reconstruction for Precise Anthropometry with Handheld Devices.

With so many high-quality applicants, the evaluation process and final decision were challenging. We would like to thank all of the applicants for submitting their diverse and fascinating range of research topics. On behalf of the Assessment Committee, I congratulate the winners on their accomplishments.

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Evaluation Committee, we are pleased to announce the two winners of the Journal of Imaging 2019 Travel Award. The awards were granted to Mr. Grigorios Chrysos, a Ph.D. student at Imperial College London, and Dr. Hai Zhang, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto. The award recipients will receive 400 Swiss Francs each to support their attendance at any academic conference on the related areas in 2019.

Mr. Grigorios Chrysos is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computing, Imperial College London. His interests lie at the intersection of statistical machine learning and computer vision.

Dr. Hai Zhang is a postdoctoral fellow in mechanical and industrial engineering at the University of Toronto. His recent research focuses on the development of a 3D photothermal coherence tomography (3D PCT) technique.

With so many high-quality applicants, selecting the recipients of the awards was a difficult decision, and we would like to thank the Evaluation Committee for their excellent work in selecting the winners from such a
large pool of excellent candidates. We wish to congratulate the winners for their accomplishments.

Dear Colleagues,

As Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Imaging, on behalf of the Evaluation Committee, I am pleased to announce that the winner of the Journal of Imaging 2018 Travel Award is Mr. Aviad Levis, a PhD student at the Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, who will be supported with 800 Swiss Francs towards his travel expenses to attend IEEE 2018 Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), to be held in Salt Lake City, USA, 18-22 June 2018.

Mr. Aviad Levis is a PhD candidate at Viterbi Faculty of Electrical Engineering,Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel. His research is in 3D imaging, computer vision, and microscopy. Mr. Levis has been invited to give talks in international conferences, sometimes as a sole author. His paper “Statistical Tomography of Microscopic Life” has been accepted to the IEEE 2018 Conf. on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR).

This was a difficult decision with such high quality applications for the award, and we would like to thank all applicants for submitting their diverse and thought-provoking presentations.
