Submission guidelines

As in previous years, attendees will be able to submit proposals for a Symposium, as well as Talks/Posters. The chair of the symposium should submit the proposal. There is no limit to how many Talks/Posters abstracts can be submitted.

Symposium submissions

Symposium submissions are open. Symposium submissions will be accepted from the 8th of January to the 7th of February 2026.

Proposals should focus on a thematic topic related to multisensory research (broadly defined) and can include between 4 and 6 individual presentations. We will ask you to provide a synopsis (max. 300 words) for the symposium as well as abstracts for each presentation (max. 250 words per abstract).
