Call for papers
IT IS NOT NECCESARY TO SUBMIT A PAPER TO ATTEND THE SYMPOSIUM
Indeed, the Symposium is structured around several lectures by leading experts in the field, who will discuss the most recent developments in the area.
However, there will be opportunities for a reduced number of presentations, particularly on topics linked to the areas discussed by the Faculty. Participants can therefore submit their papers/proposals for presentation at the symposium. Papers linked to the areas discussed by the speakers and by early stage researchers will be given preference.
There will be sessions dedicated to participant’s presentations. These sessions will be attended by Faculty from the Symposium as well as from Faculty by the organizers: Universidad Carlos III de Madrid and Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.
