Hello All,
The Grace Hopper (GHC) 2010 Call for Participation is now open at http://gracehopper.org/2010/participate/call-for-participation/
Key Deadlines:
• The deadline to submit proposals is March 16, 2010.
• Notifications on the submission status will be sent out by May 18, 2010.
Recommendations to anyone who wants to participate:
1.Your subject should not be something specific to your organization.
2.If you have a panel – it needs to span across organizations – not 5 people from the same company discussing an issue in their company. Combining academics and industry or interdisciplinary discussions are great.
3.We are encouraging submissions that promote diversity and International participation.
4.A submission in line with the theme of the conference "Collaborating Across Boundaries" would be ideal.
Submissions are being accepted in the following categories:
• Birds of a Feather (BOFs)
• New Investigators Technical Papers
• Panels, Workshops and Presentations
• PhD Forum
• Technical Posters
• Technical Research Papers
You are invited to use the GHC group to discuss ideas for sessions, find collaborators and panelists, and exchange questions and answers about the submission process.
I had the chance to attend the GHC this year as a scholarship recipient. It's a huge opportunity for female in Computer Science from both academia and industry. I encourage you to apply.
