How to present at ALAN 2025
We invite you to submit abstracts for oral presentations and posters. All abstracts will go through a peer review. The acceptance rate for oral presentations was between 62% to 64% during the last 3 conferences. We therefore encourage all authors to use the space allowed for their abstract to make a compelling case for acceptance.
In the case of abstracts for oral presentations that are deemed high quality by the reviewers but cannot be accepted due to lack of speaking slots, the authors may be offered the possibility of doing a poster presentation instead.
To submit an Abstract for ALAN 2025
Click here to submit an abstract. If you don't have an Oxford Abstracts account you will need to set up one for submission.
Authors are required to use the following Word template to prepare an abstract and to submit it as a word document via Oxford Abstracts:ALAN 2025 abstract-model-Template.
Abstracts can be a maximum of two pages long. Please do not modify the template (fonts: Times New Roman 12 pts, margins: left and right (2.3 cm) top-bottom (2,3 cm), spacing: single-spaced). Please add a title in bold, indicate which of the 6 major conference topics your presentation matches most closely, and provide the author and co-author names, institutions and corresponding author's email address.
The deadline for abstracts to be sent is March 20, 2025
By submitting an abstract, you confirm that you agree to license the work under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License, and that you are the creator or have permission to so license any images included in the abstract.
Early Stage Researcher Award
A prize of €100 will be awarded to the best poster presented by an early stage researcher (maximum 3 years since PhD awarded). Posters are judged by a group of anonymous senior conference attendees (usually not including members of the steering committee). Posters are rated based on their design, the clarity and accuracy of the information provided, the novelty of the research, and the presenters ability to communicate their results orally.
Conference Proceedings
A PDF booklet of the two-page abstracts will be provided to the conference attendees, and will be made freely available online.
