Evostar 2018

In EvoStar 2018 we wanted to recognise the good work of our students, who represent the future of our community. We selected papers that had obtained an overall review score greater than or equal to 5 or that had been nominated for a Best Paper Award, and whose first author was a student registered to attend EvoStar. Following these rules we came up with a list of 10 Outstanding Students:

• Filipe Assunção, CISUC, University of Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal
• Mosab Bazargani, Queen Mary University of London, London, United Kingdom
• Alexander Berman, AI_am, Gothenburg, Sweden
• Sondre Engebraten, FFI, Oslo, Norway

• Robert Jacob Smith, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada
• Sara Tari, University of Angers, Angers, France
• Sarah Louise Thomson, University of Stirling, Stirling, United Kingdom
