Overview
Distinguished talks, as voted on by participants, will be awarded good prizes. CQISC is a conference of graduate students, by graduate students, for graduate students. Everyone participating in the conference is encouraged to contribute with a (tentatively, 20+/-5 minutes) talk or a poster to let us know what they're working on. Time constraints might limit the number of available slots for talks. Registration fees have been waived for all participants, and some funding is available to support accommodation and travel.
For any questions or comments, please email: cqisc2009 at gmail dot com
See you in Toronto.
