Session submissions STILL OPEN for a few more hours!
We’ve received many great talk submissions on a wide variety of interesting topics. But never fear, you still have a little more time to get that last proposal in! Our portal will close on Tuesday 23 Sept, so finish off your proposal and get it submitted now.
Once the submissions close, the Sessions Selection Committee will get together and organise the conference into tracks. Successful applicants should be notified in October and you can then start getting your presentations together. Shortly after that we will publish the schedule onto the website.
