Conference Program

Lecture Theater 1, Computer Laboratory (264 seats)

The final conference program and abstract booklet are now online! Below you will find the program overview including recordings of some of the talks.

In addition to the submissions we received from academics and practitioners with an interest in deception, we also organised two special panel sessions with prominent deception researchers (future directions in deception research and technology assisted lie detection) and two special practical sessions demonstrating the role of deception in the real world (pickpocket king Bob Arno and Magician Martin S. Taylor). The rest of the program exists of 7 symposiums and a panel session with interesting topics such as cues to deceit, high stake lies, automated lie detection, guilty knowledge test, online deception, lie tendency and interview techniques. On both Monday and Tuesday evening from 17.00 to 18.00 we organised a poster session in combination with a drinks reception. For a full overview of all talks and authors, please check the full preliminary conference program.

All talks took place in Lecture Theater 1 (LT 1) in the William Gates Building, located at 15 JJ Thomson Avenue in Cambridge. The coffee and lunch breaks tooke place in The Street, the area just in front of Lecture Theater 1. The Scientific Committee meeting took place in FW09 in the William Gates building during Tuesday lunchtime. The welcome reception and conference dinner on Monday was held in Churchill College, and the conference banquet (second conference dinner) on Tuesday was held in King's College.
