ABOUT VMW The purpose of the Verification Mentoring Workshop is to provide mentoring and career advice to early-stage graduate students and late-stage undergraduate students, and introduce them to research topics aligned with the CAV conference and, more generally, formal methods. The workshop particularly encourages participation of women and underrepresented minorities. The program for VMW 2020 includes a number of talks and interactive sessions. The technical talks will provide gentle introductions to several recurring research themes in CAV, while the mentoring talks will provide useful tips about how to do good research and how to communicate your research well. The program also includes a panel that will address a variety of topics such as work-life balance and career options.
