Pre-conference day

Next Generation Challenges: Innovation, Regeneration and Inclusion

 

Detailed Pre-Conference Day Programme

   

Dear PhD students!

We cordially invite you to join the MIC 2024 pre-conference day. It is designed as a one-day event for PhD students at any stage of their doctoral studies. We aim to provide an inclusive environment for sharing questions, ideas and providing feedback on some key issues that arise in any doctoral study process.

MIC 2024 pre-conference day will provide PhD candidates with the opportunity to

  • discuss the research problem,
  • discuss methodological challenges,
  • give constructive feedback on another participant’s work,
  • receive feedback on their work,
  • meet experienced researchers,
  • network with colleagues.

The pre-conference day will include presentations of your research with time for an in-depth discussion with experienced researchers as well as workshops on publishing and research design. The preliminary schedule is available below.

Registration and Submission

You can participate in the pre-conference day either as a presenter or listener. If you want to present and discuss your research, you should submit an extended abstract by April 15, 2024, using the online conference system. 

When preparing the extended abstract take into account the following:

  • Extended abstracts must have 700 words minimum and 1,000 words maximum (not including the title of the paper, details about authors, and the reference list).
  • The extended abstract should include the study rationale and objectives, methods (list the main methods and data used in the analysis), presentation of main results and findings (if already available), conclusions (added value of the paper, significant limitations, if appropriate), and possible challenges faced by the researcher.
  • References in the text must be cited at the end of the abstract (they are excluded from the 700 - 1000 words restriction). Use the Chicago-Style Citation (Chicago-Style Citation Quick Guide is available at https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-2.html).
  • When preparing the abstract use the conference's template .

The abstracts will go through a double-blind review process and, if accepted, will be published in the MIC 2024 Book of Abstracts.

PhD students with accepted abstracts will be invited to submit full papers to the MIC 2024 Conference Proceedings, published after the conference, or to the supporting journals.
