Call for Abstracts! Posters and Model Showcase talks: Do you use computational sciences in your research? If so, we would like to invite you to submit an abstract for poster presentation and short talk in the ‘eResearch Domain Symposium: Computational Sciences in the 21st Century’ on 20 June. The poster and short talks (5 minutes) will form a ‘Computational Model Showcase’. Please submit your 500-word abstract online explaining your research, which has involved computational science approaches, and either how you have overcome a particular
challenge or your views on how computational sciences will develop in the 21st Century. We particularly welcome submissions from Early Career Researchers and PhD students from all UCL faculties. Your abstract, poster or talk should be accessible for those who are not subject matter experts. The deadline for submissions is 10am, 17 May 2019.
