The details of the 1st [Enzyme](https://enzyme.mit.edu) workshop are finally taking up shape with the [workshop](https://enzyme.mit.edu/conference) taking place from the 22nd-24th of February at CU Boulder, CO (USA). Are you already using [Enzyme.jl](https://github.com/EnzymeAD/Enzyme.jl) in your application? Are you **thinking of using Enzyme.jl** for your Julia use-case, or do you have a (new) proposed use-case? **Then we want to hear from you!**

The CfP is live with the **submission deadline on the 6th of January** , and 5 main submission formats:

- Technical Talks
- Tutorials
- Panel Discussions
- Roundtables
- Other formats such as live programming, or brainstorming sessions

We are all super excited to hear from you, about your use-cases, and are looking forward to see you in Boulder for an exciting, fast-paced workshop!

Hey! Just wanted to make the general comment that this is a really short turn around time, especially during the holidays.
