Procedure to submit a symposium
A symposium is composed of three or four papers (in both cases the allotted time is 90 minutes) that address a shared theme. Symposium proposals should contain a short summary of the topic and motivation of the symposium (250–300 words) accompanied by abstracts of the symposium papers (500–900 words each). Book symposiums will also be considered.
NB: only the coordinator of the symposium must complete the following steps. The participants to the symposium don't need a Sciencesconf account yet, and don't need to submit their own papers.
