Hi!

Are you a woman working in logic?
Please join us on July 14, 2025 at WiL, give a talk, and enjoy a day
with Women in Logic!

Please submit an abstract of 1-2 pages by May 5, 2025 (AoE), via EasyChair.

WiL 2025: 9th Women in Logic Workshop
 July 14, 2025
Co-located with FSCD 2025

Women in Logic 2025 is a satellite event of the  10th International
Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD
2025) to be held in Birmingham, UK, from July 14 to July 20, 2025.

The Women in Logic workshop (WiL) provides an opportunity to increase
awareness of the valuable contributions made by women in the area of
logic in computer science. Its main purpose is to promote the
excellent research done by women, with the ultimate goal of increasing
their visibility and representation in the community. Our aim is to:

* provide a platform for women researchers to share their work and achievements;
* increase the feelings of community and belonging, especially among
junior faculty, post-docs and students through positive interactions
with peers and more established faculty;
* establish new connections and collaborations;
* foster a welcoming culture of mutual support and growth within the
logic research community.

We believe these aspects will benefit women working in logic and
computer science, particularly early-career researchers.

Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjavík 2017, Oxford 2018,
Vancouver 2019, Paris 2020, Rome 2021, Haifa 2022, Rome 2023, Tallinn
2024) were very successful in showcasing women's work and as catalysts
for a recognition of the need for change in the community.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to: automata theory,
automated deduction, categorical models and logics, concurrency and
distributed computation, constraint programming, constructive
mathematics, database theory, decision procedures, description logics,
domain theory, finite model theory, formal aspects of program
analysis, formal methods, foundations of computability, games and
logic, higher-order logic, lambda and combinatory calculi, linear
logic, logic in artificial intelligence, logic programming, logical
aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of computational
complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical
frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model
checking, probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language
semantics, proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security
and privacy, rewriting, type systems and type theory, and
verification.

GRANTS
A limited number of travel grants is available for students/young
researchers who would not otherwise have resources to attend WiL, and
whose attendance would benefit both the applicant and the event. We
expect to be able to help with registration/local/travel expenses.
Applicants should note that grants are limited, and that costs in
excess of the grant will not be reimbursed.

Grants will be awarded to (co-)authors of accepted papers, based on
the grant committee's assessment of the applicant's genuine financial
need, the potential benefit to the applicant's education and research,
and the potential benefit to WiL.

Applications should be sent by May 17 2025 via the form:

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/hSnTGEEddPZRYqqx5__;!!IBzWLUs!VEoNhXn3z81Q3rWZoGVRxs5vxhcJ6H4bSJlBuoNhU2HcT8SjBJmhTbznxtgleJMGooZqv9IhN99x9L7ZqQ3vcCcCMd0DtfO_g9YQAWrA$ 

The award notification date is May 19, 2025.

The grants will be presented at the conferences; in case a grantee
does not attend, the chairs may transfer the grant to another student
or give no award.

The grants are kindly offered by ACM SIGLOG, Jane Street, VeTSS,
Microsoft and TOPOS Institute.
