FAQ
When is the deadline for submissions?
All submissions must be uploaded by Saturday, January 31, 2026.
Why is there a uniform deadline when processing the submissions will take several months?
Please bear in mind that a later submission deadline for some of the entries raises the question of who decides which entries may be submitted late. Due to the inherent lack of transparency and arbitrariness of such a procedure, we insist on a binding submission deadline for all entries in order to ensure fairness to all authors.
How should I format my article?

Will I receive confirmation of submission?
The system generates an automatic confirmation of receipt once the article has been successfully uploaded. If you have not received confirmation of receipt and checking the procedure steps has not been successful, please send an email to the editorial team.
In my slot at the event, several speakers have jointly contributed to the congress. Does each speaker have to register individually?
No, only one person needs to register and submit the contribution; additional authors can be added manually by this person during the process.
Is it possible to publish my contribution in another publication at the same time?
As long as no copyright is infringed, parallel publication is not a problem.
