21st IEEE International eScience Conference (eScience’25) Call for Tutorials

The 21st IEEE International eScience Conference (eScience’25) will be held in Chicago on September 15-18, 2025.

eScience studies, enacts, and improves the ongoing process of innovation in computationally-intensive or data-intensive research methods; typically this is carried out collaboratively, often using distributed computing infrastructure. eScience encompasses all fields of research and addresses all stages of the research lifecycle, from formulation of the research questions, through large scale simulations and data analytics, scientific discovery, up to long-term sharing, publication, reusing, and reapplying of the results, data as well as the relevant tools, processes and knowledge.

The tutorial program is intended to teach new and/or state-of-the art tools and techniques relevant to the eScience audience, disseminate information to conference attendees on recently emerging topics and trends, or provide surveys and overviews of related digital technologies.

We encourage all submissions that fall in the area of the conference, and particularly those that have a practical (hands-on) component that helps attendees learn new technologies in eScience. We also encourage submissions that disseminate new technologies in eScience to a more diverse audience.
