Due to the limited time available for the programme, and the increasing number of abstracts we receive there is no guarantee that all papers will be accepted. As in previous years we can normally only accept one paper from any given project.
All abstracts received by the February deadline will be considered by the Steering Committee and will be selected on the basis of quality, originality, and importance of the topic.
Details of the Seminar will be posted on our website soon (www.arabianseminar.org.uk) and further information will be sent out in April, once the provisional programme has been organized.
