Call for DC Applications
The 18th Annual ICCBR Doctoral Consortium (DC) will be held at ICCBR 2026 in Bremen, Germany. The DC is designed to nurture Ph.D. candidates by providing opportunities for mentorship and peer feedback on their research, future work plans, and career objectives through interaction with senior CBR researchers, practitioners, and peers, as well as the opportunity to publish a research summary in the DC proceedings. We plan for the DC program to include student presentations with discussion, invited talks or panels from senior CBR researchers or practitioners, and additional social activities to encourage further conversations with mentors and fellow students and develop a doctoral student cohort. Before the DC sessions on August 16, participants will be invited to an opening gathering on August 12, 2026.
Submission
We welcome applications from doctoral students worldwide pursuing research on case-based reasoning or applying CBR in their research. Applications for full participation include a cover letter, brief research summary (5 pages max in LNCS format), CV, and advisor recommendation. To apply, please follow the detailed instructions to be posted on this website.
Video Information Session
We will have a video meeting on April 15, 2026, to go over the submission process and answer questions about the DC. The time will be set to accommodate participant time zones. To express interest in participating in the meeting and/or to be added to a mailing list for future DC announcements, please enter your information in the mailing list form.
