Symposia
Symposia should include presentations on a specific theme and integrate findings from different research projects. Symposia are organized by a convenor, and will be scheduled for 1 hour and a half or 2 hours. They will include 4 or 5 presenters (normally speaking for about 20 minutes each), plus 15 minutes for a discussant stimulating interaction with the audience.
In order to submit a symposium we would like to receive an overarching abstract by the convener(s) referring to the individual contributions within the symposium. Also, convener provides names of presenters and titles of their individual presentations.
In addition to that all contributors are asked to submit individual abstracts. All abstracts should be composed following the guidelines specified above. Before sending an abstract authors should refer to convener of symposia of interest (the abstract must be approved by the convener).
Bursaries
Students and researchers in the early stages of their career and with limited resources can apply for a financial support. We plan to offer some of these bursaries to delegates from Eastern Europe and other countries that are not as well supported as most Westerners. A limited amount of bursaries is available, covering registration fees, meals, and accommodation.
To apply for a bursary on-line application form, together with their abstract submission form should be completed. A Scientific Committee will evaluate the scientific and methodological quality of received proposals and offer bursaries to the presenters of the best abstracts.
