PQC 2026 : Call for poster proposals

A call for posters is open to PhD students and postdoctoral researchers as part of the 2026 ‘PQC - Post-Quantum Cryptography’ conference.

Organised by CREACH LABS and the the DGA Information Superiority, in partnership with ANSSI, IRISA, IRMAR and the Pôle d'Excellence Cyber, the 2026 "PQC" conference brings together the academic, industrial and institutional communities -- from the design of schemes to their implementation and evaluation.

This two-day conference offers a unique setting to compare approaches and combine, in a single venue, strategic perspectives, hands-on field experience and cutting-edge research.

The poster session is an opportunity to present ongoing work and to engage in discussion with specialists from a range of disciplines. 

Topics may include, but are not limited to: 

• New post-quantum cryptographic schemes (design, security, cryptanalysis).
• Performance and optimization of post-quantum primitives.
• Software, hardware or embedded implementation, resistance to physical attacks.
• Integration, large-scale deployment and post-quantum cryptographic transition.
  Each accepted poster will be the subject of a short 3-minute talk. The best poster will be awarded a prize during the event.

Important

• Poster and abstract written in English (international audience).
• Each accepted poster will be the subject of a short 3-minute talk.
