Apply to organise a Concurrent Session at ICAR2022
A great feature of ICAR2020/ICAR2021 in Seattle was the enormous success of the community-led selection of concurrent sessions.
At ICAR2022 we aim to replicate this community-engagement in the selection of concurrent sessions.
The organisers invite applications through the form below. This requires the names of organisers, the title of the concurrent session, a brief description (<300 words) and the names of suggested speakers.
At ICAR2022 we will run 21 concurrent sessions across seven time slots. These sessions will be 2 hours in length and the organisers are free to organise these sessions however they would like. We hope that this will be a mix of invited talks and those selected from abstracts. Organisers will be responsible for leading their concurrent session, particularly ensuring that the session keeps to time.
For each concurrent session ICAR2022 will provide two free meeting registrations as well as £500 to help with travel expenses. The session organisers can distribute these registrations and funds however they would like.
We also offer the opportunity for session organisers to submit a review article to the Journal of Experimental Botany. This is a great option to summarise the current state-of-the-art in the subject area as well as to provide younger scientists with experience in preparing a review article.
ICAR2022 will also include at least 10 90 minute Workshop sessions. Unsuccessful applications for concurrent sessions may be invited to organise a workshop. ICAR2021 will not provide a financial contribution for workshops.
ICAR2022 will announce the titles of plenary sessions in March, which will allow organisers of concurrent session to design their applications to possibly complement these plenary sessions.
Applications will go live at the end of February. The closing date is July 31st 2021.
