Conference Partner
We are honored to have the National Institute for the Study of Ageing and Later Life (NISAL) at Linköping University as our partner for the 2016 conference.
NISAL studies the interplay between the cultural, social, political, health-related, and technical aspects of aging in a changing society. Research is conducted through major and minor projects within three broad fields:
• Sociocultural, political, and historical context
• Care and welfare
• Aging in time and space: Home, housing, and technological landscapes
Proposal Submissions and Deadlines
We welcome the submission of proposals to the conference at any time of the year before the final submission deadline. All proposals will be reviewed within two to four weeks of submission. The dates below serve as a guideline for proposal submissions based on our corresponding registration deadlines:
Early Proposal Deadlines – 6 March 2016
Regular Proposal Deadlines – 6 July 2016
Late Proposal Deadlines – 6 September 2016
If you are unable to attend the conference in person, you may present in a Virtual Poster session or a Virtual Lightning Talk. Virtual Sessions enable participants to present work to a body of peers and to engage with colleagues from afar.
As a virtual participant, presenters are scheduled in the formal program, have access to select conference content, can submit an article for peer review and possible publication, may upload an online presentation, and can enjoy Annual Membership to the community and subscriber access to The International Journal of Aging and Society.
