For over 25 years, the ACM International Conference on Supporting GroupWork
(*GROUP*) has been a premier venue for research that integrates work in
social science, computer science, engineering, design, values, and other
diverse topics related to group work, broadly conceptualized.

The Doctoral Colloquium provides a unique forum for sharing ongoing Ph.D.
projects of participants with other advanced Ph.D. students and
distinguished faculty for mentoring and feedback. Space is limited, so an
application of up to four pages is required, in the ACM standard format.
Please contact the workshop co-chairs at dc at group2018.org.

The Doctoral Colloquium will also *offer travel support* and the
colloquiums extended abstracts are published in the ACM Press Conference
Proceedings and in the ACM digital Library.
