Doctoral Consortium (COMMA Summer School)

The Doctoral Consortium at the COMMA Summer School provides PhD students and Early Career Researchers with a forum to discuss their research with the argumentation community. This year’s session is organised by OHAAI.

Accepted participants will be:

1. Matched with an academic tutor.

2. Given a presentation slot to share their work during the summer school.

3. Published in OHAAI Volume 6.

Submission Guidelines

We seek papers in the form of extended research abstracts from current PhD students, or recent graduates, giving an overview of their PhD research agenda and how it relates to the field of argumentation. Submissions are encouraged from all disciplines, as the ambition is to provide the best possible indication of the scope for applications of argumentation. Papers must not exceed 4 pages (plus references and acknowledgements).

The papers will need to be submitted in PDF and will need to follow the LateX or MS Word templates provided on our website: http://ohaai.co.uk
