CALL FOR PARTICIPATION AT THE EVENT OF THE ACM SIGIR WOMEN IN IR
At the premises of SIGIR 2025, which will take place in Padova, from July 12th to July 18th, a dedicated event organised by ACM SIGIR Women-in-IR (WIR) is planned on Wednesday, July 16th. The event will consist of a panel followed by a poster session, which aims to provide a platform for women participants at all stages of their career to synthetically present their research interests and share their career paths.

The panel session will offer an opportunity to listen and talk to experienced researchers (from both Academy and Industry), who will provide their experience as well as suggestions for career paths development.
