**************************************************************
The Diagrams conference provides a united forum for all researchers with an
interest in the study of diagrams. The conference fosters
multi-disciplinarity and allows researchers from areas such as computer
science, mathematics, psychology, philosophy, history (of science, art,
etc.), education research, and more to meet and share their perspectives on
the theory and application of diagrams.
The goal of the Diagrams 2026 Graduate Symposium is twofold. Firstly, the
Symposium will provide senior graduate students and recent Masters and
Doctoral graduates with the opportunity to present their research.
Established researchers will provide feedback and comments on each of the
presentations. Secondly, the Symposium will provide students with an
opportunity to network with each other as future colleagues.
In previous Diagrams Graduate Symposiums, lively and useful discussions
have enabled students to receive suggestions about their on-going research
and allowed more experienced participants to hear some fresh ideas and view
some of the new trends in the field.
