Conference Theme: Embracing Failure
Happy accidents. Colossal disasters. Disproven hypotheses. These are the pillars of discovery, creativity, and advancement of knowledge. Yet we fear, diminish, and avoid such mistakes too often. This year's theme "Embracing Failure" invites participants to celebrate projects, theories, experiments, and creative works that did not turn out as we expected.
We welcome proposals on all topics. However, proposals that engage the theme - broadly conceived - are strongly encouraged. In highlighting your successful research and projects, don't be afraid to discuss the trials and tribulations of your process, or present important lessons learned from "failed" attempts at projects.
