The Coveted Founders Award!
In honor of the 11th anniversary of SCIPIE, the board established the inaugural SCIPIE Founder’s Award in 2015, a special tribute to the most creative and interactive session format. Carrying on that tradition, we are looking for another innovative session to honor in 2025.

We cherish the working nature of SCIPIE. Thus, we are imagining new opportunities for conference dialogue that will help set direction for the field. At the end of the submission form, we will ask you to provide your input about how to ensure that your session achieves collaboration.
