Scientific Programme: Contributed oral or poster presentations

The Scientific Programme Committee invites you to submit an abstract for either a contributed oral or poster presentation (or both if you are keen!) on any topic aligned with this year's conference themes, or on a topic of your interest. We particularly encourage presentations with a strong applied emphasis, including case-studies, and anticipate that theoretical presentations will have a strong applied motivation.

Before you Submit an Abstract, please read these Guidelines for Contributors.
