Requirements

Abstracts of 200 to (approximately) 400 words should be sent to livingwithanimals@eku.edu. The first line of the abstract should be the title of the talk, and the next line(s) should be the authors’ names, positions, affiliations, and email addresses. Following this should be a blank line, followed by the text of the abstract. All should be single-spaced. Reference to existing bodies of work might be made. In addition, provide a one-page CV of your most relevant work and experience. Abstract files should be titled with the last name and first initial of the (lead) presenter plus the word abstract (e.g. Patel_G_abstract.docx.) CVs should be titled with the last name and first initial of the presenter plus the word CV (e.g. Smith_D_CV.doc)
Please send your abstract and CV in the form of a Word document (.doc or .docx) NOT a PDF.

Please also indicate if you would like your presentation to be a talk or a poster, or if you are offering a panel. Posters are an excellent way to present some artistic works, and allow the presenter to engage closely with conference attendees who are most interested by their work. Posters will be presented during the buffet lunch on Saturday, March 25.

If you are an artist who would like to present an artist talk about your artwork as a conference participant, please include up to 4 JPEG images of your artwork with your abstract, and a link to your website if available. Images must be sized at 1280 pixels on the longest edge (avoid making images smaller than 1280). All files must be titled with last name and first initial of the artist, plus the image number, (e.g. Lopez_M_1.jpg or Li_J_1.jpg.).

Individual paper or individual artist talk presentation times will be 20 minutes, including time for questions. Panels (usually 3 people- 3 papers or 2 papers and a respondent; maximum time, 1 hour) are welcome. All presentations, panels and posters will be reviewed by the organizers and/or chairs.
