About RuSSIR
The school series started in 2007 and has developed into a renowned academic event with solid international participation. The missions of the school are to enable students to learn about modern problems and methods in information retrieval and related disciplines; to stimulate scientific research and collaboration in the field; and to create an environment for informal contacts between scientists, students and industry professionals.
The 13th Russian Summer School in Information Retrieval (RuSSIR 2020) will be held on August 24-28, 2020 in Moscow, Russia on the premises of the Higher School of Economics. The focus of RuSSIR 2020 will be "Conversational AI". RuSSIR 2020 will offer up to eight courses and host approximately 150 participants. The target audience of the school is advanced graduate students, young scientists, academic and industrial researchers, and developers. The working language of the school is English.

Participation in the school is competitive: the candidates are selected by the program committee based on extensive applications, which results in high-level and motivated participants. Participation in RuSSIRs (including school materials and social program) is free of charge for students; a considerable part of the budget is spent on accommodation and travel grants for students.
