The main goals of the workshop include 1) to bring researchers working in different disciplines but with
common research interests on HHMC together for exchanging research ideas, and 2) to promote
interdisciplinary collaborations and experience sharing between different subjects.
The workshop will also be used as an event to discuss medium- and long-term activities in the UK and
internationally on HHMC related research, such as the possibility to set up a UK- and/or a European-wide
research network funded by UK and/or EU funders. If successful, the workshop may be continued in future
years as a pan-Europe or an international event.
At the workshop participants will be able to present their research work and ideas as oral presentations
and posters. To encourage participations, the workshop will call for extended abstracts (up to 800 words)
rather than full papers, and there will be a light-weighted peer review process conducted by the workshop's
technical program committee to ensure quality of presented work while encouraging less mature work to
be discussed among participants. Different types of work can be presented: original research, position
papers, surveys, work in progress, research projects and networks, etc. Work already published
elsewhere is also encouraged to be presented as posters and/or short (elevator pitch type) talks.
Papers primarily based on (but not limited to) the following topics are welcome: (Topics include but not limited to)
