Submit Abstract

New for 2021 CEC/ICMC – Late-Breaking Abstract Submissions: due date June 28

While the main program is almost finalized, because CEC-ICMC is virtual in 2021, we are planning to try to include late breaking sessions. This is new for CEC/ICMC’21, to allow anyone who is still interested to have the opportunity to present.

The abstract site has been opened for submissions until June 28. Late-breaking abstracts may arrive too late to be organized into theme-oriented sessions, however they will be organized into overall topics. If they arrive soon enough, they may be considered for theme-oriented sessions if possible.

Abstract Submission Deadline Extended: 11:59 PM EST, April 26, 2021
Abstracts that are not submitted to the submission site by the deadline will only be considered at the discretion of the Program Chairs.
