Dear Colleagues,
We would like to remind you that abstract submissions (for on-site and virtual symposia,
talks, and posters, as well as virtual presentations) for the 12th annual BCCCD meeting
will be accepted until September 30, 2021 (one week from now).
We are still hopeful that the conference, organized by The Cognitive Development Center at
CEU, can be arranged in a hybrid format (January 6-8 & 10-14, 2022) and we will see
many of you at Budapest.
As stated before, the first, on-site component will take place at the Budapest campus of
CEU, from 6 to 8 January. As usual, this section will include invited and submitted talks
and symposia, as well as poster presentations. While mainly an in-person event,
emphasizing face-to-face networking, talks and symposia will be streamed online during
this component with additional virtual participation options.
A second, virtual component will take place online during the subsequent week, from 10 to
14 January. On-site participants will take part in this component as well but we welcome
additional submissions of empirical and theoretical work from those who prefer or are able
to present only virtually. All presenters will have their dedicated channel on an online
platform, with their material (video & other) uploaded directly into the channel, so
that attendees will have access to the presentations that they can discuss in the same
space. Additionally, presenters will be asked to be online in their channel during
assigned sessions, so that participants in all time zones can attend each other's
presentation slots.
Regarding the symposia submissions, please indicate also your preferences whether you
would be able to attend the on-site conference and present in person at Budapest, or you
would prefer to join only the virtual component of the conference. (You can submit a
symposium proposal for either fully on-site or fully virtual format. So in case some
speakers can only make it online, we ask you to submit for the latter, fully virtual
format where all speakers present their talks during the online part of the conference.)
We are committed to create an impactful and inclusive conference in spite of the changing
circumstances. With this hybrid format, we want to ensure that all registered participants
will be able to benefit from similar opportunities during BCCCD22.
