We are excited to inform you that we plan to host the 17th Annual Context and Episodic Memory Symposium (CEMS2021) to be held at The Logan Hotel, in Philadelphia, PA, on '''August 16th and 17th, 2021'''. The symposium provides a forum for the exchange of ideas among colleagues working on theoretical and empirical approaches to the study of context and episodic memory, broadly construed. While we are aware that travel remains a challenge for many in our community, we also believe in the value of CEMS, even at a more intimate scale, to disseminate outstanding research from a diverse array of perspectives. All presentations at this year’s meeting will be delivered in person.

The 17th Annual Context and Episodic Memory Symposium (CEMS2021) was held at The Logan Hotel, in Philadelphia, PA, on August 16th and 17th, 2021. Every year, the symposium provides a forum for the exchange of ideas among colleagues working on theoretical and empirical approaches to the study of context and episodic memory, broadly construed. All presentations at CEMS 2021 were delivered in person. Our program committee decided to use CEMS2021 to highlight the work of younger investigators, particularly postdocs and junior faculty.  These two groups were prioritized for spoken presentations. All other groups who submitted work (senior faculty, graduate students) were given poster presentations.

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.-->

CEMS 2019

The 17th Annual Context and Episodic Memory Symposium (CEMS2021) was held at The Logan Hotel, in Philadelphia, PA, on August 16th and 17th, 2021. Every year, the symposium provides a forum for the exchange of ideas among colleagues working on theoretical and empirical approaches to the study of context and episodic memory, broadly construed. All presentations at CEMS 2021 were delivered in person. Our program committee decided to use CEMS2021 to highlight the work of younger investigators, particularly postdocs and junior faculty. These two groups were prioritized for spoken presentations. All other groups who submitted work (senior faculty, graduate students) were given poster presentations.


Location & Hotel

Venue

The venue for CEMS 2021 was The Logan, located in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The Logan hotel is located at 1 Logan Square, Philadelphia, PA 19103.
