We invite submissions for symposium proposals. We look forward to receiving your contributions. Please send the following information through e-mail to the Congress Secretariat 【intodon2012[at]gmail.com】(change [at] to @) as early as possible and by no later than December 20, 2012.

Please note that the Congress Organizer does not promise any financial support at this moment.

Applicants will be informed whether their proposed symposium has been accepted, integrated with another, or rejected, after having been reviewed by the Program Committee. Information of accepted symposia will be placed on the website from time to time. On the website, you can get information about who will attend the congress and what topics will be discussed before the deadline of registration.

There will be approximately 10 symposia in total, selected from those submitted through this application process. The timeframe for each symposium will be 1-2 hours. Each symposium may include four to six presenters.

At the time of your proposal we request that you will have already obtained the informal consent of the planned organizers and symposium presenters. If consent has not been gained, please indicate this in the name column, by adding (to be contacted) or (under negotiation), etc.

Before or soon after the deadline for registration and paper submission, the Program Committee may request merging of proposed symposia with similar topics, or inclusion of regular presenters into a symposium. We therefore request that for the moment you do not offer any guarantees regarding the holding of a symposium to candidates.

The titles and organizers of symposia that have already been accepted will be listed in the page "symposia" of our Congress Home Page. The list will be updated from time to time, which may help you to include your name as a co-organizer or a presenter in the symposia after your contacts with the organizer(s). Symposium titles and organizers may be required to make appropriate changes, depending on the presentations included.

We are looking forward to your active contribution to the 2012 International Congress of Odonatology.
