The Doctoral Spotlight will consist of short talks by the student authors, to be given during the main program. The goal is to give more exposure to student authors who are near graduation, and to specifically highlight their work to the rest of the community, including potential employers.

Update: The winners of the Doctoral Spotlight Awards are:
