News from the International Biometric Society

8 Aug 2021 2:46 PM | Marie-Louise Rankin (Administrator)

The IBS Travel Awards Program (hooray, travel!) will launch its pre-International Biometric Conference travel funding campaign very soon. More information may be found here.   Those who reside in lower and middle-income countries may apply. Funding of up to $3,000 USD per applicant is to be used to attend the 2022 International Biometric Conference in Riga, Latvia, taking place from July 10-15 at the Radisson Blu Hotel and Conference Center.

Related to the conference, there is no membership requirement to join the new IBC online Community, which was recently launched . Obviously, those eventually planning to attend the 2022 IBC will find this more useful than others. Updates related to local travel restrictions and much more will be posted there, as well as full session information.

And speaking of sessions, just a reminder that submissions from a broad range of perspectives are encouraged during our IBC Call for Contributed Sessions. Click here to view an list of the methodological topics and application areas that have been covered at previous conferences and which likely will also be covered at the next conference. This is not an exhaustive list by any means.

Submissions for oral presentations and poster sessions must be submitted online through the ScholarOne abstract portal, and will be accepted through 30 September 2021. Click here to get started.

And finally, it might be helpful to know that new rates for online advertising have just been posted online. Click here to view them:.

As always, we are happy to answer any questions you have at ibs@biometricsociety.org. Thanks for your interest!
