Location:  Albena, Bulgaria

The Scientific Organizing Committee invites papers from physicists, philosophers of physics and philosophers on any topic related to the nature of spacetime.

As there will be no main theme of the sixth spacetime conference the Committee also invites proposals for special session topics. The topics proposed so far are listed at http://www.minkowskiinstitute.org/conferences/2020/call.html

Depending on the number of colleagues participating in a special session, we plan to publish a volume with the talks presented at the session, which will include constructive criticism and the replies of the authors.

Contributed papers in the form of extended abstracts of between one and two pages should be emailed to 2020conference[AT]minkowskiinstitute.org by January 31, 2020. Submissions will be reviewed and notification of acceptance will be sent by February 17, 2020.
