VMG visited Phoenix, Arizona USA in October 2017 for IEEE VIS2017, the premier forum for advances in scientific and information visualization. This weeklong event convenes an international community of researchers and practitioners from academia, government, and industry to explore their shared interests in tools, techniques, and technology.

We presented the following tutorial, papers and posters:
