[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Now is the time to propose a paper.  In addition, if you supervise graduate students make them aware of this fantastic opportunity.  We are asking for an “extended abstract” (two to four pages in length) that included the problem statement, methodology (and if appropriate data sources) and findings.  Note that full papers must be submitted in advance of the conference; on February 19th for podium papers and March 16 for papers presented as posters.

 

We will be using “Conference Maker” as our abstract management system.  If you already have a Conference Maker profile, log in with your username and password.  If not, create a profile.

 

To access Conference Maker, click here or paste the following into your browser address bar:  https://editorialexpress.com/cgi-bin/conference/conference.cgi?action=login&db_name=TRF18

 

We look forward to welcoming you to Minneapolis.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#233d8a”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
