Each MICCAI Conference, Program Chairs recognize the exceptional work of three Area Chairs with the Outstanding Area Chair Award.  Recipients are Area Chairs who have done an outstanding job to:

• promptly complete all of their tasks on time,
• pro-actively shepherded the review process,
• worked with their reviewers to ensure a high quality of reviews,
• meticulously provided detailed and constructive metareviews to each paper under their purview, and
• actively initiated and participated in the post-rebuttal discussion with the reviewers and fellow Area Chairs.

The recipients of MICCAI Outstanding Area Chair Award are provided free registration to attend the MICCAI Conference.
