Papers and abstracts will only be accepted for review on the condition that the manuscript has not been copyrighted, published, presented or accepted for presentation at a professional meeting and is not currently under review for presentation at another professional meeting.

Authors must register for, and attend, the Symposium to present the paper if it is accepted.

All accepted papers will be published in the Symposium Proceedings, provided completed papers are received by the appropriate deadline and conform to the format, length requirements and within the layout guidelines (www.islconf.org)

Full Paper: The complete paper and an accompanying abstract should be submitted by Monday 12th February 2024 and will be subjected to a full peer review process. Full papers must be no longer than 8 pages (excluding the abstract). Format requirements for the abstract are detailed below, and a style guide for the papers can be found on the ISL website. If accepted, authors will be expected to make changes consistent with the reviewers’ comments before final submission by Monday 27th May 2024. All full papers will be published in the Proceedings of the Conference, which will have an ISBN number.

For both Full Papers and Abstracts, the aim is to provide feedback to authors by Monday 15th April 2024.
