With over two decades of experience in academia and industry, Alireza has led significant research initiatives across AI and technology fields. His expertise spans the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) and real-time intelligence at the edge, AI Digital Twins, and Sustainable AI, where he has been driving innovations that align with cutting-edge industrial and societal needs, contributing to digital transformation, healthcare, and smart systems innovation.''<br /> <br /> == Themes ==<br /> You can present at the workshop by submitting an abstract, which will be peer-reviewed. Abstracts are welcome in the following topics:<br /> * philosophy of AI: ethics, epistemology, metaphysics<br /> * general philosophy of technology<br /> ** epistemology of engineering<br /> ** tacit knowledge in engineering<br /> ** ontology and metaphysics of technology<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - AI at War ===<br /> '''Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS)''' are no longer science fiction: we can say that they are part of our current reality.<br /> <br /> The emergence of LAWS marks a profound transformation in the nature of warfare, bringing urgent philosophical, ethical, sociopolitical, and technological questions to the forefront. No longer confined to the realm of science fiction, autonomous systems are now actively reshaping the theater of conflict. Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

His expertise spans the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) and real-time intelligence at the edge, AI Digital Twins, and Sustainable AI, where he has been driving innovations that align with cutting-edge industrial and societal needs, contributing to digital transformation, healthcare, and smart systems innovation.''<br /> <br /> == Themes ==<br /> You can present at the workshop by submitting an abstract, which will be peer-reviewed. Abstracts are welcome in the following topics:<br /> * philosophy of AI: ethics, epistemology, metaphysics<br /> * general philosophy of technology<br /> ** epistemology of engineering<br /> ** tacit knowledge in engineering<br /> ** ontology and metaphysics of technology<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - AI at War ===<br /> '''Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS)''' are no longer science fiction: we can say that they are part of our current reality.<br /> <br /> The emergence of LAWS marks a profound transformation in the nature of warfare, bringing urgent philosophical, ethical, sociopolitical, and technological questions to the forefront. No longer confined to the realm of science fiction, autonomous systems are now actively reshaping the theater of conflict. Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

Abstracts are welcome in the following topics:<br /> * philosophy of AI: ethics, epistemology, metaphysics<br /> * general philosophy of technology<br /> ** epistemology of engineering<br /> ** tacit knowledge in engineering<br /> ** ontology and metaphysics of technology<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - AI at War ===<br /> '''Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS)''' are no longer science fiction: we can say that they are part of our current reality.<br /> <br /> The emergence of LAWS marks a profound transformation in the nature of warfare, bringing urgent philosophical, ethical, sociopolitical, and technological questions to the forefront. No longer confined to the realm of science fiction, autonomous systems are now actively reshaping the theater of conflict. Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

With over two decades of experience in academia and industry, Alireza has led significant research initiatives across AI and technology fields. His expertise spans the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) and real-time intelligence at the edge, AI Digital Twins, and Sustainable AI, where he has been driving innovations that align with cutting-edge industrial and societal needs, contributing to digital transformation, healthcare, and smart systems innovation.''<br /> <br /> == Themes ==<br /> You can present at the workshop by submitting an abstract, which will be peer-reviewed. Abstracts are welcome in the following topics:<br /> * philosophy of AI: ethics, epistemology, metaphysics<br /> * general philosophy of technology<br /> ** epistemology of engineering<br /> ** tacit knowledge in engineering<br /> ** ontology and metaphysics of technology<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - AI at War ===<br /> '''Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS)''' are no longer science fiction: we can say that they are part of our current reality.<br /> <br /> The emergence of LAWS marks a profound transformation in the nature of warfare, bringing urgent philosophical, ethical, sociopolitical, and technological questions to the forefront. No longer confined to the realm of science fiction, autonomous systems are now actively reshaping the theater of conflict. Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Mihály Héder''' - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * '''Alexandra Karakas''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Eszter Nádasi''' - assistant professor<br /> * '''Gellért Nagy'''  - PhD Student<br /> * '''Márton Pluzsik''' - PhD Student<br /> * '''Marcell Sebestyén''' - PhD Student<br /> <br /> === International Program Committee ===<br /> <br /> * '''Anda Zahiu''' - University of Bucharest, Romania<br /> * '''Conor Heaney''' - Kent Law School, University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom<br /> * '''Jacopo G.

Additionally, she is an official reviewer for several academic journals.''&lt;/blockquote&gt;<br /> <br /> == Themes ==<br /> You can present at the workshop by submitting an abstract, which will be peer-reviewed. Abstracts are welcome in the following topics:<br /> * philosophy of AI: ethics, epistemology, metaphysics<br /> * general philosophy of technology<br /> ** epistemology of engineering<br /> ** tacit knowledge in engineering<br /> ** ontology and metaphysics of technology<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - AI at War ===<br /> '''Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS)''' are no longer science fiction: we can say that they are part of our current reality.<br /> <br /> The emergence of LAWS marks a profound transformation in the nature of warfare, bringing urgent philosophical, ethical, sociopolitical, and technological questions to the forefront. No longer confined to the realm of science fiction, autonomous systems are now actively reshaping the theater of conflict. Ethical debates around responsibility, bias, and accountability, the dual-use dilemma of AI research, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine agency call for a multi-layered investigation.<br /> <br /> This track encourages contributions to explore the representation of AI in warfare across literature, film, video games, and other media, recognizing that cultural narratives both reflect and shape public understandings and moral intuitions about emerging military technologies.<br /> <br /> In this special track, in line with the nature of the conference we focus on the philosophical questions surrounding these machines, such as:<br /> <br /> * LAWS in historical and modern contexts<br /> * Arguments for and against a ban on LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of development of LAWS<br /> * The permissibility conditions of usage of LAWS<br /> * Machine ethics of LAWS: the issues of bias, fairness, explainability, trustworthiness in the context of AI at War<br /> * Dual use technologies<br /> * The transformation of soldiering and military ethics in the face of automation<br /> * Speculations about the future of LAWS<br /> * Understanding deeper human values and virtues in light of LAWS<br /> <br /> === Special Theme - '''Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring''' ===<br /> The special track titled '''‘Medical Technologies: Curing and Caring’''' aims to bring together scholars from various fields focusing on the philosophical, historical, sociological, and communicative role of technology in the medical sciences. From functional and malfunctional medical instruments to ethical dilemmas posed by risky technologies, the influence of technological advancement on our physical and mental health is enormous. The track highlights that these questions cannot be reduced to a single discipline, since they require a much more nuanced analysis that can scrutinize ethical, technical, and philosophical problems simultaneously.<br /> <br /> This track also aims to investigate the representational level of medical developments in the arts, media, and popular culture, since, from period dramas to science fiction, many genres reflect on the past, present, and future of health and healing. <br /> <br /> The program committee proposes the following themes (including, but not limited to):<br /> <br /> * Historical analysis of medical instruments<br /> * Philosophy of medicine<br /> * Values in medical diagnosis and processes<br /> * Bias in medical research<br /> * Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine<br /> * Technological and ethical aspects of end-of-life decisions<br /> * Gendered medical instruments <br /> * Maintenance and repair studies<br /> * Medical humanities<br /> * Medical progress in the arts, popular culture, and media<br /> <br /> If you apply to the special track, please indicate in your submission!<br /> <br /> === Local Organizing Committee ===<br /> <br /> * Mihály Héder - associate professor - chair of the committee<br /> * Alexandra Karakas - assistant professor<br /> * Eszter Nádasi - assistant professor<br /> * Gellért Nagy  - PhD Student<br /> * Márton Pluzsik - PhD Student<br /> * Marcell Sebestyén - PhD Student</div>
