The format of CEMS is to have a relatively small number of spoken presentations each followed by a commentary given by a scientist working on related problems.  The program committee aims to identify submissions that highlight major new theoretical and/or empirical advances. Papers not selected for these spoken presentations can be given as poster presentations.  In previous years, posters have been a major highlight of the meeting and have been very well attended.  The Bennet B. Murdock award will be given for the best poster or spoken presentation by a young investigator, as determined by the committee.

Abstract submission

Submission of abstracts for both posters and talks has closed.

The format of CEMS is to have a relatively small number of spoken presentations each followed by a commentary given by a scientist working on related problems. The program committee aims to identify submissions that highlight major new theoretical and/or empirical advances. Papers not selected for these spoken presentations can be given as poster presentations. In previous years, posters have been a major highlight of the meeting and have been very well attended. The Bennet B. Murdock award will be given for the best poster or spoken presentation by a young investigator, as determined by the committee.
