The deadline for submitting your abstracts, workshop applications, and expert Q&A panel forms is 25 March 2022.

Accepted abstracts will be published in a special issue of the International Journal of Population Data Science and be uploaded to MEDLINE. We are especially interested in abstracts submitted by Masters and PhD students, as well as Early Career Researchers. There are no restrictions on submitting previously published work for consideration.

The 2022 conference is being held in Edinburgh, Scotland, from 7-9 September. It is the largest event of its kind, bringing together experts and researchers in the field of population data science to network, collaborate, and share their findings with their global peers.

The main theme of the conference is “Data Linkage Research: Informing Policy and Practice”.

Attendees will have the chance to not only engage in these activities, but also listen to expert keynote speakers from Brazil, Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK to name but a few, present their research abstracts in front of their colleagues, and apply to run workshops.

We are also delighted to invite applications to form one of the pre-conference workshops and expert Q&A panels.

All abstract submissions and applications must address the conference theme and one of the sub-themes of the conference.

You can find the guidelines, application forms, and link to submit your abstracts on the IPDLN website.
