Invitation for Proposals for Courses/Workshops/Symposia at the 47th Annual Scientific Meeting

The ISCoS Annual Scientific Meeting consists of General Sessions of individual papers, scientific posters, invited guest lectures, and Courses/Workshops/Symposia.

These courses may vary in length from 1½-3 hours, organized by a chairperson under a single SCI topic, usually including a guest faculty of 2-5 members.

All courses require handouts (maximum of two pages per faculty member) to be submitted ahead of the presentation and distributed to meeting attendees in a single bound volume.

Courses/Workshops/Symposia are selected by the Scientific Programme Committee based on proposals submitted.

The deadline for Course/Workshops/Symposia proposals for the Annual Scientific meeting of ISCoS is the same date as for Abstract submission. Those submitting proposals will be notified of the Programme Committee decision in the same time as those submitting abstracts for the meeting.
