=============================================================================================================================================== Hi everyone, We cordially welcome and invite you to take part in The Trauma THOMPSON Challenge 2025, hosted at MICCAI this year in Daejeon, South Korea. This challenge aims to advance AI for critical care in austere, low-resource, and emergency response environments. Participants will tackle a range of computer vision and multimodal AI tasks, including action recognition and anticipation, hand tracking, tool detection, visual question answering, and realism assessment. Teams will work with a unique egocentric dataset of ~3700 video clips featuring unscripted and lifesaving regular and just-in-time procedures under diverse environments. Top-performing teams will be eligible for prizes and publication opportunities. You can find more information and register for the challenge with the URL below. Please feel free to forward this invitation to colleagues or groups who may be interested. We look forward to your participation in pushing the boundaries of AI for emergency medicine!

Specifically, the scientific community is invited to submit algorithms that, given videos as input, they can: (a) recognize and anticipate actions, (b) track hands, (c) detect tools, and (d) answer medical questions to support inexperienced providers during high-stakes procedures. Sample algorithms are provided to encourage participation. The goal is to drive innovation in AI for emergency care under low resource environments, ultimately improving patient outcomes in first response medicine.
