What if you had five minutes to make people curious about your research?
Flash Talks at CARE conference 2026 give selected researchers the opportunity to step onto the conference stage and introduce their work to the wider CARE community, bringing a key idea, result or insight to the attention of researchers, faculty and industry experts from across the AI and ML landscape.
It is not about saying everything. It is about saying the right thing: what problem you are tackling, what you have discovered, why it matters, and where the work could go next.
A great research idea can lead to a great conversation, and a great conversation can lead somewhere unexpected. A Flash Talk gives you the chance to:
For early-career researchers especially, this is an opportunity to practice one of the most valuable skills in research: making people understand why your work matters.
Flash Talks are deliberately short and focused. You will have 5 minutes and a small number of slides to communicate:
What are you trying to solve?
What is your approach or key insight?
What have you discovered?
Why does it matter, and what could come next?
You don't need to cover every detail of your research. Your goal is to leave the audience understanding the idea, the contribution and the potential.
The Flash Talk is for researchers who have a piece of work they want to bring to a wider audience, whether that is a significant finding, an exciting new direction, or a problem that could benefit from a fresh perspective.
If you can explain what you are working on, why it matters and where you want to take it, you have the foundation for a great Flash Talk.
Bring your strongest idea, your most interesting result, or the question you can't stop thinking about, and present it to the CARE conference stage. Submit your abstract. Take the spotlight. Start the conversation.
