ECVP 2013: Call for Symposia 

 

The 36th European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP) will take place in
Bremen, Germany, from August 25th to August 29th 2013.

ECVP features a number of user-organized symposia that provide a broad, but
coherent overview about the state-of-the-art of a given topic. We highly
encourage submissions of symposium proposals until December 31st 2012. We
particularly also like to motivate young investigators to take the chance of
organizing a symposium at this particularly pleasant and important
conference.

Symposia will have a total length of 2 hours. Individual talks should relate
to each other and should be suited to also provoke discussion, but number
and length of individual talks may be freely chosen. Symposia should be
introduced by the organizer or another selected speaker to motivate both the
general framework of the topic and the symposium's outline to the audience,
and ideally should have a summary or prepared discussion at the end.
Symposia are particularly beneficial if they aim at a diversity of ideas and
people and should not restrict on single groups or 'schools'.

To keep registration fees at a reasonable and low level, there is
traditionally no extra financial support for symposia. Speakers are expected
to register as normal participants to the conference. 

 

If you submit a proposal, please mail to
<mailto:symp2013 at ecvp.uni-bremen.de> symp2013 at ecvp.uni-bremen.de and
include:

1.       Organizer's address with affiliation, email and phone number.

2.       The title of the proposed symposium and (not more than) one page
that should clearly state the motivation, the aim and recurrent theme of the
symposium. 

3.       List of speakers and the topic of contribution, and mention of
whether they were contacted, have accepted, etc.

 

All proposals will be reviewed by the program committee. Notification of
symposium acceptance will be sent by January. You can find additional
information at http://www.ecvp.uni-bremen.de/

 

In case of acceptance we will need:

-          Summary of symposium (200 words) for use in printed material.

-          List of agreed speakers, affiliations, email and mailing
addresses.

-          Temporal structure of the symposium with exact sequence of talks.
Include time for discussion and questions.

-          Abstracts of individual talks (each 200 words)

-          Special requests (audio-video, etc.)

 

Best regards and awaiting many interesting proposals,

ECVP 2013 team,

Udo Ernst | Cathleen Grimsen | Detlef Wegener | Agnes Janssen
