Together with academic or scientific journals, conferences provide an important channel for exchange of information between researchers. Overview[edit] Conferences are usually composed of various presentations. Prospective presenters are usually asked to submit a short abstract of their presentation, which will be reviewed before the presentation is accepted for the meeting. In some disciplines, such as English and other languages, it is common for presenters to read from a prepared script. A large meeting will usually be called a conference, while a smaller is termed a workshop. At some conferences, social or entertainment activities such as tours and receptions can be part of the program.

The larger the conference, the more likely it is that academic publishing houses may set up displays. Academic conferences worldwide - Conference Alerts. Symposium.

Symposia were also held by aristocrats to celebrate other special occasions, such as victories in athletic and poetic contests. They were a sort of pride for them. Symposia were usually held in the andrōn (ἀνδρών), the men's quarters of the household. Food and wine were served. The men apart of the symposium would discuss a multitude of topics—from philosophy to love and the differences between genders. Drinking[edit] A slave attends to a vomiting symposiast.
