Schedule/Talk information

The submission of talks usually includes a variety of topics and levels. The talks are 50 minutes in length, including time for questions. We are also including the submission of tutorial sessions which are 3 hours in length.

To submit, simply fill in the form below and tell us about you and your proposed session, remember to include a short bio about yourself including a landscape photo with a minimum width of 300px for the website.

The “tell us why we should accept your talk” field is never published, so this is your invitation to persuade us why we should choose you and your talk this year! Feel free to include links to previous talks or other published materials.
