8th Biennial Conference, 2021: Threshold Concepts in the Moment

Dear Colleagues,

I hope you're all well in these on-going strange times. You may have seen this elsewhere so apologies for duplication.

I'm very pleased to announce that we have now re-opened the submissions for the Bi(tri)ennial Threshold Concepts conference originally scheduled for July 2020 at UCL, and now running online between 7-9 July 2021. If you didn't get a chance to submit originally, now is your chance...

The submission window closes on April 12th at 6pm (UK time).

Some other details:

  • We will very shortly be opening up registration for everyone and I will post further details about that (hopefully in a few days). The full fee will be £30, with a lower-/un-/precariously waged option of £10.

  • You will need to create an EasyChair account to submit.

  • We intend to run a single-session continuous conference with plenty of breaks (as long as we can arrange the schedule according to people's timezones!).

  • It will take place between 7th and 9th July (UK time) but the precise timing will be determined by the final submissions.

  • We will make every endeavour to have people present during their normal working hours.

The blog for the conference has more information and the call for papers is both there and on EasyChair.

Have a lovely weekend, when it gets here
