Through VulGen’26\, we aim to (i) understand under what circumstances the generative systems could “go wrong” (i.e.\, vulnerabilities)\, in both current state and future development; and (ii) build a dedicated research community to address the potential downsides of generative systems that could lead to unexpected or harmful outcomes. \nYou can expect a full-day dynamic program packed with keynote and panel sessions\, structured breakout discussions\, extended abstract presentations\, and engaging poster and demonstration sessions. \nFor further information on SIGIR conference registrations\, please visit the SIGIR 2026 website. \n\nImportant Dates \nAll key dates are by the end of day in Anywhere on Earth (AOE). \n\nExtended abstract submission – 4 May 2026\nNotification – 21 May 2026\nCamera-ready submission – 15 June 2026\nWorkshop co-located with SIGIR´26 – 24 July 2026\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact us via vulgen-workshop-sigir2026@easychair.org \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1758694850249{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_btn title=”CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS” style=”custom” custom_background=”#ffd600″ custom_text=”#000000″ size=”lg” align=”left” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fvulgen-workshop.github.io%2FSIGIR2026%2Fsubmission%2F|target:_blank”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1758694850249{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_btn title=”MORE INFORMATION” style=”custom” custom_background=”#ffd600″ custom_text=”#000000″ size=”lg” align=”left” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fvulgen-workshop.github.io%2FSIGIR2026%2F|target:_blank”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1758694470808{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”CALL FOR PAPERS” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:22px|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff|line_height:23px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]This conference positions Asia not simply as a regional context for empirical inquiry\, but as a generative vantage point for theorising the interwoven dynamics of platforms\, AI\, and socio-political transformations.

SUMMARY:2026 ADM+S Symposium - Automated Human and Planetary Health
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Automated technologies can contribute to or undermine human and planetary health. The 2026 ADM+S Symposium focuses on current research from across the Centre that seeks to better understand the complex interconnections between automated systems and the health of people and the ecosystems of which we are part” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff” css=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1651551961626{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \n\n\nIn Australia\, our burgeoning digital health sector is using automated decision-making (ADM) and AI to improve access to healthcare\, enhanced treatment protocols\, better diagnosis\, monitoring and prediction models\, and more personally tailored care. However\, many consumer and industry organisations\, including some of our partner organisations\, have identified potential risks posed by ADM to trust\, equitable access\, safety\, privacy\, transparency and social justice in healthcare and public health. \nADM and AI technologies are also used to maintain and monitor aspects of the environment\, including the health of animals\, plants and the quality of air\, water and soil. Here again\, there are manifold potential benefits and risks of these applications\, including issues related to ecological and multi-species justice and detrimental impacts such as increased e-waste\, carbon emissions\, water consumption and air pollution related to digital infrastructures. \nThis symposium provides a timely forum for considering the applications\, use cases and social\, political\, ethical\, legal and environmental consequences of these technologies in the context of automated human and planetary health. \nEvent Details \nThe symposium will be held at the Caufield campus of Monash University\, Victoria between Tuesday 27 and Thursday 29 October 2026. It will be organised and conducted in accordance with relevant ADM+S policies\, including: the Code of Conduct; Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion Strategy; and the Accessible Meetings and Events Policy. Online participation will be enabled for remote presenters and attendees. There will be no registration fee for presenters or attendees.\nMore information here: https://www.admscentre.org.au/adms-policies/ \nTimeline \n\nNotification of EOI outcome: on or before Monday 29 June\nFinal Session description (including speakers info) due: Friday 24 July\n\n  \n\nOrganising Team \n\n\n\nProfessor Deborah Lupton (UNSW)\nProfessor Anthony McCosker (Swinburne University of Technology)\nProfessor Nicholas Carah (University of Queensland)\nProfessor Kath Albury (Swinburne University of Technology)\nDr Bronwyn Bailey-Charteris (UNSW)\nDr Giselle Newton (University of Queensland)\nChief Operating Officer Nicholas Walsh (RMIT)\nNode Administrator Til Knowles (Monash University)\nOutreach and Partnerships Officer Matt Warren (RMIT)\n\n\nContact Information \nAny questions please contact admsevents@rmit.edu.au \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1779935551332{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_btn title=”SUBMIT YOUR EOI” style=”custom” custom_background=”#00BF63″ custom_text=”#000000″ size=”lg” align=”left” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLScBsDdJRaZY4GO0OeoV2wSDAp0jCpm27YQww8orGLm3yEI_Xw%2Fviewform%3Fusp%3Dheader|target:_blank”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1776305698312{padding-top: -35px !important;background-color: #ffd600 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”ABOUT THE SPEAKERS” font_container=”tag:h4|font_size:22px|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff|line_height:23px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_col-xs-6″][vc_single_image image=”974″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ css=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″ offset=”vc_col-xs-6″][vc_column_text css=””]Daniel Angus\nProf. Daniel Angus is Professor of Digital Communication in the School of Communication\, and Director of QUT’s Digital Media Research Centre.
