YERME organises an online pre-CERME15 event for young researchers on 11 June, 2026, 14:00-17:00 (CET). The pre-CERME15 event provides an opportunity for YRs to prepare for the congress with different tasks of applying, submitting, and participating in CERME15. In addition, it constitutes an important opportunity for meeting and networking with YRs from other countries. 

The event will provide information about the idea of CERME as a working congress, discuss how to select a Thematic Working Group, give information about the submission process, and discuss principles for the review process.

Sign up via this link. The event is free of charge and an attendance certificate will be provided on request.
