VB2007 call for last-minute papers

Virus Bulletin is seeking submissions from those wishing to present last-minute technical papers at VB2007.

As usual, the conference will include a programme of 40-minute presentations running in two concurrent streams: Technical and Corporate, the running order for which has already been finalised and can be seen here.

In addition to the traditional 40-minute presentations, a portion of the technical stream has been set aside for last-minute technical presentations.

Last-minute presentations will be selected by a committee consisting of members of the VB advisory board. The committee will be looking for presentations dealing with up-to-the-minute specialist topics.

There is no limit on the number of proposals that can be submitted/presented by any individual, and presenting a full paper does not preclude an individual from being selected to give a last-minute presentation.

Those selected for the last-minute presentations will be notified 7-10 days prior to the conference start, and will be required to prepare a 20-minute presentation (including time for questions) to be given on the afternoon of Thursday 20th September.

Those selected for the last-minute presentations will receive a 50% discount on the conference registration fee.

Proposals must be sent to editor@virusbtn.com no later than Monday 3 September 2007. Proposals should consist of a brief (approx. 200-400 word) summary of the proposed presentation. Submissions received after 3rd September will not be considered. Please include full contact details with each submission.
