* Call for Contributed Symposia *

We encourage the joint submission of thematically related papers of a key
research topic as symposia. Symposia will be allocated 2 hours slots for 3
up to 4 speakers across different disciplines). The convener should submit
the following:

• A general abstract of no more than 250 words about the symposium topic,
motivating its relevance.

• Name three up to four symposium speakers with their talks’ titles, and a
short abstract of no more than 150 words.

The selection of symposium talks should stimulate interdisciplinary
discussion. If researchers are not accepted as part of a submitted
symposium, they are nevertheless encouraged to submit their manuscripts
under the regular call for papers. We assume that the speakers have
confirmed their participation. 

Please, note that each participant can present only once at EuroCogSci 2019
(in a symposium or with an individual paper or poster). Co-authors who are
not presenting their co-authored work may nonetheless present another work.
Please note that we will not be able to offer any financial support for
contributed symposia.

When filling out the submission form, please select only one section
