EuroGP is the premier annual conference on Genetic Programming (GP), the oldest and the only meeting worldwide explicitly devoted to this branch of evolutionary computation. It is always a high-quality, enjoyable, friendly event, attracting participants from
all continents, and offering excellent opportunities for networking, informal contact, and exchange of ideas with fellow researchers. It will feature a mixture of oral presentations and poster sessions and invited keynote speakers.</div>
