This is a separate event from the talks that people can volunteer to give.
We will not be requiring a paper, only an abstract. So feel free to apply if you have an idea you’d like to present but don’t have a paper ready. I don’t think we currently have plans to index the abstracts on google scholar, but I can check with the more senior organizers to see if they’d like to.
Also, the talks will be around 10 minutes each.
As far as I know, he’s confirmed.
