FOCS 2025 will hold workshops on <\/b>December 14<\/b>. We invite groups of interested researchers to submit workshop proposals.<\/b><\/p>

The FOCS 2025 workshops provide an informal forum for researchers to discuss important research questions, directions, and challenges in the field. Workshops often serve the vital purpose of introducing researchers to new areas and agendas. We also encourage workshops focusing on connections between theoretical computer science and other areas.<\/p>

Format:<\/b> Each workshop should be either 2.5 hours or 5 hours. All workshops are in person.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Workshop and tutorial proposals should fit within two pages. Please include a list of names and email addresses of the organizers, a brief description of the topic and the goals of the workshop, and the format (overview talks, invited talks, contributed talks, poster session, panel discussion, etc.) and proposed or tentatively confirmed speakers if known. The proposal should specify the desired duration (2.5 or 5 hours).<\/p>

We encourage proposals to directly address how the topics will fit together and how the format will help researchers outside the particular subarea learn about it. If your proposal is accepted and you wish to solicit contributed talks, we can link to your call for contributions from the FOCS 2025 page. Feel free to contact the workshop co-chairs directly if you have any questions.<\/p>
