We are excited to announce the upcoming Fall Conference of the International Young Researchers' Conference (IYRC). The conference is structured on separate days. The In-person Conference Day will take place on December 7, 2024 at the Columbia University in New York. Additionally, on January 18, 2024 (EDT Time zone), we will host a Virtual Conference Day for those unable to attend the conference in person.
The IYRC is an interdisciplinary conference that offers high school students the opportunity to publish their original research and present it to an international audience. Over the years, the IYRC has successfully organized nine conferences, attracting aspiring young researchers from 25 countries and accepting more than 460 papers.
