Workshop and Conference Reviews
Workshop/ Conference reviews should be prepared in one of the following two formats.
Brief synopses (max 1000 words) may be submitted by either participants or conference organizers at the regular newsletter deadlines. These can include synopses of workshops that will be published in more detailed accounts (book or special journals), and should include information as to where the information will published.
Longer reports (max 2500 words) will be considered from large workshops/conferences for which other publications are not stemming. The purpose of the latter format is to provide a venue to disseminate information and discussions that would otherwise not be available to non-conference participants. Anyone attending such a workshop and wishing to publish in the Newsletter should contact the Editor at least one month prior to submission deadlines. Reports should aim at a critical assessment of the conference, as well as a synthesis of the convergent ideas presented. A synopsis of future directions of research that were reached at the end of the conference should also be included. Anyone attending the workshops may submit reports, but preference will be given to submissions not be authored by conference organizers. A single application for a workshop will be considered, so it may be appropriate to agree upon a reporter at the conference. Graduate students and postdocs are strongly encouraged to consider contributing to writing these reports.
