We invite proposals for contributed minisymposia and contributed talks in discrete and algorithmic mathematics and related areas. Information about submissions is available on the conference website:
https://canadam.ca/2027/#submissions
A contributed minisymposium brings together talks on a common theme and may comprise one to three session blocks, each containing three to five talks, with five preferred. Proposals should include a title, a brief description and a list of proposed speakers. Individual talk titles and abstracts are due later. Accepted contributed talks will be grouped by the Program Committee into sessions on related topics.
Please note that, due to capacity constraints, each participant will be limited to one talk at CanaDAM 2027, with the exception of the plenary and public interest speakers who may give one additional talk. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. Other important policies can be found in our conference bylaws:
