Göttingen, 27 July – 1 Aug 2026

Deadlines for submission: 
September 30, 2025 (panels)

Interested colleagues are again invited to propose thematic panels, which should contain at least three papers per panel, as well as individual papers. Both the individual papers and the panels will be divided into 6 parallel sessions, typically running from mid-morning (11:00 am) until the evening.

Each paper is allotted a time slot of no more than 20 minutes, followed by 5 minutes for discussion and questions. Prospective panel conveners should submit the title of the panel and a short description to coptic-congress-2026@uni-goettingen.de, as soon as possible, but no later than September 30, 2025.

Posters (A0 format) are recommended for the presentation of work in progress, research tools, and similar topics. A dedicated space will be available near the main lecture theatres. Participants unable to bring their posters to the congress should email coptic-congress-2026@uni-goettingen.de. The organisers will provide assistance with the printing.

Short abstracts (ca. 200 words) for panel contributions, individual short papers, and posters need to be sent to: coptic-congress-2026@uni-goettingen.de before December 31, 2025. Participants who wish to give a short paper, or to present a poster will be able to indicate this during the online registration process in the menu Contribution Type. Papers can be presented in English, German, or French. The congress committee reserves the right to decline any paper or poster proposal in light of time and capacity constraints.
