The goals of this conference are:
Build a supportive community of researchers and practitioners interested in life improvement science and its applications.
Work towards a shared understanding of the most important open questions of the field and how they can be answered.
Provide an overview of some of the most important research that has been done in different areas of life improvement science.
Foster intellectual exchange and collaboration across different fields.
For more information, please visit the LIS Conference Website!
The Life Improvement Science conference invites abstracts for talks, posters, tutorials, symposia, panel discussions, and other events on topics relevant to life improvement science. There will be two types of talks: short presentations (10-20 min) and longer thematic talks on big ideas (30-45 min). A virtual poster session will be held at gather.town. We especially encourage contributions that further the dialogue about what the most important open questions of life improvement science might be and how they can be addressed. Your talk or panel discussion could highlight one or more important questions that life improvement science should address or present findings, methods, or ideas relevant for addressing open questions about well-doing, optimal personal development, and reducing ill-doing, such as these.
Do you have an idea of what you might want to present at the LIS conference that you are not sure about? Would you like to organize a discussion on one of your favorite topics? Would you like to get feedback on a possible submission idea before drafting an abstract? We invite you to submit a highly informal presubmission inquiry anytime between now and February 28th. It's a win-win! You get feedback to adapt your submission, and we can start planning the schedule earlier. We are looking forward to discussing your ideas with you to see if we can make it work. To submit your presubmission inquiry please use this form.
The final abstract submission deadline is April 16, 2021, at 23:59 Anywhere On Earth time. Your abstract can be up to 500 words long. To submit your abstract please use this form.
