Special Sessions
A special sessions call is issued (see important dates), to raise visibility on topics of focused interest in a particular scientific or applications area. Special sessions proposals should be submitted by sending a 1-page summary to
info AT apms-conference DOT org
outlining the session objectives and topics, as well as details of the session organizers.
Comprising a number of papers focussed on a specific theme, which has been proposed by the Special Sessions chair/s, it's a great opportunity to address a topic with the right depth, giving it the proper visibility, and allowing also time for discussion and networking.
APMS could also be an ideal venue for research initiatives and projects to hold special sessions or workshops in their thematic area.
