PANELS & TUTORIALS

Panels

Panels at EuroVis should address current and controversial topics relevant to the conference participants. In particular, we invite panels that spark discussions about issues that are either often overlooked or only now emerging. To that end, panels should strive to present and debate a wide array of diverging opinions and perspectives on a current topic in visualization.

Panel topics could, for example,

  • address cross-cutting issues in visualization (e.g., reproducibility or teaching);
  • give a voice to everyday users and readers of visualization (e.g., data scientists or business analysts);
  • cast a light on societal aspects of visualization (e.g., accessibility or inclusion);
  • discuss the pros and cons of different visualization career paths.

Panelists should be experts in their fields who bring a unique, refreshing, or rarely heard point of view to the panel discussion and who can engage the audience and each other in a lively scholarly debate.

Panels at EuroVis 2025 will have a format of a 90-minute-long moderated discussion among panelists, also allowing for interaction with the conference attendees. Long opening statements are discouraged. We further recommend that the panel organizer/moderator is not one of the panel members.

Panel proposals should not only describe the topic but also address ways to achieve a controversial discussion, how to limit self-presentations, and how to integrate the audience. For more details, see the Submission Guidelines below.

Tutorials

Tutorials are an excellent opportunity to offer training on newly emerging topics in the field of visualization, e.g., on visualization tools, technologies, and methods. It is expected that tutorials will address an audience with a varied range of interests and backgrounds: beginners, developers, designers, researchers, practitioners, users, and lecturers.

We invite tutorials that include, for example,

  • cross-cutting topics in visualization research and practice (e.g., using color or conducting user studies)
  • topics bridging multiple areas (e.g., mobile visualization or interaction design for visualization);
  • applications of visualization in various domains and to various forms of data;
  • themes outside of the standard visualization curriculum (e.g., eye tracking or immersive visualization);
  • cutting-edge tools and technologies in visualization (e.g., the use of LLM and image synthesis for datavis).

Tutorial speakers should be experts in their fields who can combine theoretical foundations and practical hands-on examples into a high-quality in-depth learning experience.

Tutorials at EuroVis 2025 will have a format of 180 minutes with a coffee break in between. The structure of the tutorials is flexible and should orient itself on the tutorial contents. We recommend a mix of presentation techniques like quizzes, practical exercises, and Q&A to engage the participants and create a lively atmosphere.

Tutorial proposals should not only describe the topic but also address ways to achieve an engaging setting for learning that encourages questions and discussions, how to limit the share of frontal lecture-style instruction, and how to provide learning paths and pointers for further self-study after the tutorial. For more details, see the Submission Guidelines below

USEFULL INFORMATIONS & GUIDELINES

All proposals should include:

  • Title and Abstract
  • Intended Audience: background knowledge, career stage, subdomain of visualization if applicable
  • Description of the topic: motivation, relevance to the EuroVis conference, aspects to be covered
  • Description of the organization: proposed structure, time allocation, materials provided
  • List of potential panelists / Bios of tutorial speakers
  • Previous Editions: if the panel/tutorial was conducted before, where and when was it conducted?
  • Equipment needed to run the panel/tutorial

Proposals should be approx. 3 pages, and they should be submitted via PCS at https://new.precisionconference.com/submissions.

Choose “Make a new submission to” -> “Eurographics” -> “EuroVis 2025” -> “EuroVis 2025 Panels and Tutorials”.

Proposals should be submitted as a PDF file using the EuroVis 2025 LaTeX2e Style template.

On Overleaf this template can be imported easily by selecting “New Project” -> “Upload Project” and then uploading the zip file. Use the included file EGauthorGuidelines-eurovis25-panelstutorials.tex as the main template for your submission.

Accepted panels and tutorials are required to prepare a short abstract for the conference program.

For any questions about the call or about specific submissions please contact the three co-chairs at panelstutorials@eurovis.org.
