 We also accept closed panels. Closed for paper submissions to the general public (submissions by invitation only). Pre-organized and complete panel that already has an appointed chair, co-chair, discussant(s) and 4-6 papers. The panel convenor (proposer) will be responsible for sending invitations to the authors (presenters) and accepting all paper abstracts submitted to the panel.

We are looking forward to receiving many high quality proposals. If you have a question, please contact the chair Heike Hermanns
