General information:

All participants will be subscribed to our conference email list prior to the meeting. Please accept this subscription, as we will circulate login information and daily announcements via this list.

Selected junior speakers will be contacted as soon as selection of abstracts is complete.

All notices regarding the meeting will be sent after the closure of registrations, typically the week before the conference.

Last year, we received a small number of applications with invalid emails. If you have previously registered, but have not heard from by by the end of Friday 10 July 2026, please get in touch with us at cmpinthecity2020@gmail.com (yes, it has a previous year’s date).

Contributed Posters:

All participants are welcome to submit abstracts for poster presentations; In previous years we have been able to accommodate all requests, but we reserve the right to make a selection in case submissions exceed our capacity. An initial selection will be made after May 1st.

Contributed Talks:

We will include contributed talks from junior participants (*) in the main conference programme.

If you are interested to be considered for a talk, please prepare an abstract and a one-page presentation to be submitted with the registration form by 1 May at the latest. Please include a summary / viewgraph of the main results of the research that you would like to present.

We will evaluate submissions after 5pm UK time on 1st May 2026, so later submissions may not receive full consideration.
