The following symposia proposals have been selected after review by the Scientific Program Committee (SPC) of ICNC2014 for inclusion in the Final Program.Over 60 symposia were submitted for consideration. Each symposia was reviewed and ranked independently by each member of the SPC to yield a composite average score. The rankings were then reviewed to ensure that no one individual had more than one symposia selected.
In addition two symposia were combined due to broad topic overlap and some attention was paid to ensure proper geographic diversity. In this way the final selection was arrived at. Time and space limitations restricted the final number of symposia to 16.
Many thanks to everyone for submitting your highly regarded proposals. We look forward to seeing you all in Iguazu Falls, Brazil in May 2014 for what will be a tremendous scientific and social gathering.
