Doctoral Workshop Presentation
The Doctoral Workshop will take place on the Tuesday (April 22)

to make a 15-minute presentation on their dissertation project
(research problem, methodology) followed by 15 minutes of feedback
from a discussant.

Paper
20-minute oral presentation followed by a 10-minute question period

Poster
A poster session will take place on two of the three days of the
conference. Posters will be displayed and presented by their authors
for the length of their session.

Thematic Session
Thematic sessions will be included on two of the three days of the
conference. These should be structured around a particular theme
proposed by the sessions’ organizers including 4-5 papers and a final
discussion.
Proposal formats for presentations are as follows:

•       Thematic sessions: a 100-to-150-word overview of the topic as
well as the names of the authors & titles of the papers to be
presented within the session should  be sent to
newsounds2025 at utoronto.ca by July 19, 2024 with the subject line ‘New
Sounds 2025 – Thematic Session Proposal’. Proposals will be assessed
by the conference’s Scientific Committee. Papers within each thematic
session will be assessed subsequently alongside paper & poster
abstracts for the non-thematic sessions; inclusion of a paper within a
thematic session proposal does not guarantee acceptance. Notification
of thematic session acceptance will be sent by August 1, 2024.

•       Doctoral workshop: a 300-word text + reference list outlining
the research problem and methodology submitted via Microsoft CMT
(https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/NewSounds2025/) by September 15,
2024. Please note that accepted presentations will need to be
submitted two weeks prior to the workshop (by April 8, 2025) in order
to provide discussants sufficient time to review & prepare feedback.

•       Proposals for papers (including those for a thematic session)
and posters: a 300-word text + reference list outlining the research
problem, methodology, results, and contributions. All proposals will
be assessed considering the following criteria: presence of a
motivated research problem with links to previous research;
methodological soundness; quality of the analysis including evidence
of data having already been collected (authors should indicate the
number of participants on which the analysis presented in the proposal
is based); contribution to the field; appropriateness of the topic for
the conference. These should be submitted via Microsoft CMT
(https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/NewSounds2025/) by September 15,
2024 and will be assessed via triple peer review.

Please note that the conference Microsoft CMT system will not be
available for submissions before August 1, 2024. Notices of acceptance
will be sent by December 15, 2024.

This is an in-person only conference and all presentations are to be
