  "content": "<p><strong>Hi Kagglers,</strong></p>\n\n<p>Welcome to our Oropharynx Cancer (OPC) Radiomics Challenge: Local Recurrence Prediction, a Kaggle competition that is just getting rolling! We're really thrilled to launch this challenge on Kaggle in class, in partnership with MICCAI <a href=\"http://cpm-miccai.org/\">1</a> to trigger this important issue that represents a matter of concern for all the workers in the field of head and neck cancer management. We hope that by the end of this challenge we'll yield many interesting elaborative and of course winning algorithms, that will conceptually shift our perspective of the way we manage oropharynx cancer patients. We promise the winning team to be offered a proffered manuscript acceptance (post-editorial review) in order to highlight and describe their approach and algorithm with waiver of fees in Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology (ctRO), along with an  invitation to attend the 19th MICCAI international conference in Greece. Also, our data science team will be perceptive on this forum throughout the challenge to answer your questions. Good luck Kagglers and may the odds be ever in your favor!!</p>",
