Participate > Invited talk self-nominations

Invited talks by self-nomination is one of the main features of the TRTM's bottom-up up structure. Submission of a self-nomination implies that the applicant believes that they are able (in terms of their skills, expertise, and results) to prepare and to present the talk of their chosen format and intends to attend (in-person) TRTM 2027, organised as specified in its Statute. 

Please use the web interface to submit your talk's abstract (mandatory):

• Go to "My submissions" and then "Submit an abstract", where you can find this abstract template (click here for its PDF version).
• Indicate the type and format of your proposed talk either as an in-depth report (of a recent discovery or discoveries), or a (topical) roadmap, or a (topical) tutorial, or another format you believe to fall within the scope of the Round Table.
• Follow further instructions for submission.
• Any optional information in support of your self-nomination (see the TRTM Statute) must be emailed directly to the TRTM secretary.
• If an amendment needs to be made to the abstract of your invited talk (once it is already posted), email the TRTM secretary.

Once you have received and accepted the invitation (after the due selection process described in the Statute), the information you supply during the submission will be posted online, and so, you must not include any confidential information or information that you or your co-authors would not like to be made public. If you need to pass any confidential information to the organisers, please email the TRTM secretary directly. In particular, email the TRTM secretary to inform that you fall within the scope of the EDI-related positive actions, as defined in the TRTM's Statute: please only inform us about the existence of the need for the EDI-related positive action to be triggered but do not identify the reasons why. 

The cut-off dates for consideration are 15 June 2026 (the early cut-off date, results communicated during w/c 13 July 2026) and 1 September 2026 (the final deadline for submission of self-nominations for invited talks, results in w/c 28 September 2026). Abstracts for self-nominations that do not go through will be considered alongside the poster abstract submissions. If submitting after 15 June 2025 and intending to participate anyway (i.e. with or without a talk), ensure that you submit as early as possible, since the submission date will determine the selection priority.

Please let us know if you need a visa invitation by emailing the local organisers or the TRTM secretary (who will pass your request to the local organisers); note that additional information might be requested for the invitation to be issued.
