In the case of a āpanelā session, the session organizer needs to provide a title for the panel and a brief outline of the panel topic. As well the full name, affiliation and email for the presenters in order that they can be added in the system. Typically a panel includes 3 or more presenters and a chair for the session. Papers will not be attached to the panelists in these sessions, however, we encourage organizers to provide a paragraph or more for each panelists, so that we can add this information to the programme details.Ā The number of panel sessions in the program isĀ limited and therefore a session that includes academic papers is the preferred session type.Ā
ByĀ January 14th, 2022Ā at the latest, the conference organizer must receive a word or text document that will specify the session titles, session chairs, paper titles and authors, and possibly discussants. List of author names must include affiliation and indicate which author is the presenter, as these sessions will have to be entered into the online system. In the case of a panel session please provide the session title, session chair(s) and the name, affiliation and email for all presenters.Ā
