Deadline Extended!

New Deadline: Friday, January 10th, 2014

We here at Data Driven have been contacted by several potential applicants in the last week or so requesting deadline extensions.

Even though we have received more than enough proposals for the upcoming conference and monograph, we have decided to grant this request as the holiday season has shortened the semester for some of us.  Therefore we have agreed to extend the deadline until January 10th, 2014.

We wanted you to know, however, that our timeline for notification will not be pushed back and that we will still send out acceptance notifications by February 1st, 2014.

Complete proposal information is available here.
