2026 Annual International Conference on Biologically Inspired Cognitive Architectures, the 17th Annual Meeting of the BICA Society (BICA 2026), Mérida, Mexico, September 9 - 12

Submission Process & Important Dates

BICA uses a multi-round submission model, allowing authors to submit their work across multiple rounds during the year instead of a single fixed deadline.

Each submission round includes:
  • Paper submission deadline
  • Notification of acceptance
  • Camera-ready submission (Springer / CSR journals)
  • Author registration deadline

The deadlines for submitting articles will be announced soon.

New submission rounds are announced after the initial deadline of the previous round.Any round may become the final round without prior notice, so authors are encouraged to check this page regularly.

Authors are free to select any rounds for their submissions. The number of submissions per author is not limited; however, each paper must be covered by a separate registration.
