*Call for Meetups*
http://www.ieeevis.org/year/2015/info/call-participation/meetups

We invite you to submit proposals for informal meetups on scientific
visualization, information visualization, visual analytics, application
areas, or related topics.

Meetups: Meetups (previously known as BOFs) are an excellent forum to
discuss a wide range of topics related to visualization. For example, if
you are an experienced researcher, consider submitting a proposal to share
your knowledge in an informal setting with conference participants.
Proposals devoted to a particular discipline's methods and cross
disciplinary proposals are both welcome. For example, some recent meetups
have included opportunities to discuss topics related to blogging about
visualization, the BioVis contest, and the connection between art and
science.

VIS2015 is eager to expand its Meetup sessions and will consider proposals
given room availability.

VIS2015 meetups are public and open to all attendees. Meetup organizers
need to register at the conference.

Proposal format: A meetup proposal should include a title, a responsible
person (name, contact information), a brief description of the topic to be
addressed, prospective audience, a foreseen number of participants, room
equipment requirements as well as, if needed, preferences and constraints
for meetup schedule. The proposal should be no longer than two pages in
length.

Meetup proposals should be sent to the Meetup Chairs at [log in to unmask]
<mailto: [log in to unmask]>.

Impromptu meetups: We also encourage impromptu meetups to be organized
during the conference itself. Please contact the chairs by email or in
person during the conference in order to secure a conference room and time
slot.

Networking: To find other people interested in VIS 2015 meetups on social
media, please use the hashtag #vis2015meetup.

availability.
We also welcome on-site impromptu meetups. Please contact us in person or
