In addition\, there will be a specialty track at the conference dedicated to issues related to Hume and applied ethics. Participants in this track will have the opportunity to submit their work for publication in a forthcoming edited anthology on the topic.

Submissions from active scientists\, researchers\, or practitioners are also welcome\, particularly insofar as those presentations could complement the ethics in theory and practice theme of the conference. We also especially welcome proposals from women and minorities\, and are committed to making this year&rsquo\;s conference inclusive and welcoming to all.
