- Submissions: research papers, position papers, works in progress, and demos across natural sciences, engineering, medicine, and social sciences; up to 8 pages plus references (ACM sigconf), double-blind, non-archival (papers under review or accepted elsewhere welcome)
- Keynotes: Jingrui He (UIUC), Na Zou (Shanghai AI Lab), Jieyu Zhao (USC, incoming HKUST)
