The number of participants in the TSCF international conferences is restricted so as to allow participants to effectively interact. Former participants in the TSCF conferences are part of the larger constituency that TSCF wants to create. They are expected to stay in touch and exchange information.
The TSCF conferences are preceded with an open call for papers allowing potential speakers to present their projects for review. The abstracts submitted are evaluated by an independent conference program committee.
Research presented to the conference can be published by TSCF after further elaboration by the authors and appropriate assessment. In addition to its regular international conferences, TSCF may hold high-level meetings and seminars in various places around the world on a rotating basis.
Participation is dependent on compliance with our Conference Rules & Terms and Conditions
