Workshops

Workshop proposals that address important topics related to the conference theme will be reviewed and accepted. Workshops should be focused on interactions of participants to exchange new ideas and explore new directions in research.

The primary criteria for selection are anticipated level of interest, impact, novelty or creativity, and technical background of presenters.

Additionally, we encourage involving the Technical Committee(s) that would be interested in the proposed workshop. Workshop proposals should be submitted through the PaperPlaza system, using the format described below.

General questions associated with BioRob 2012 tutorials and workshops may be addressed to Tutorials and Workshops Co-Chairs , , , and . Specific workshop questions may be addressed to the workshop organizers.
