Call for Papers
📢 Camera-Ready Submission Deadline
The camera-ready deadline for accepted papers is November 23, 2025 (Anywhere on Earth). Please make sure to upload your final version by this date. If you have any questions or encounter issues during submission, feel free to reach out to the organizing team.
The Learning from Time Series for Health (TS4H) workshop is returning to NeurIPS 2025, and invites submissions focused on the unique challenges and opportunities in modeling time series data to better understand and improve human health.
Time series data is ubiquitous in modern healthcare, spanning diverse modalities such as wearables, sensors, medical waveforms, and electronic health records. This workshop brings together researchers working across methodological and applied areas to address questions unique to the intersection of time series analysis and health.
We invite you to submit your work by August 22, 2025 September 1, 2025 (Anywhere on Earth).
To recognize an outstanding contribution, we are pleased to offer a $500 Best Paper Prize 🏆 sponsored independently by Google and Apple
Topics of Interest
Submissions may explore but are not limited to:
Models & Methods

Submission Instructions
We invite short papers of up to 4 pages, excluding references and appendices. All submissions should follow the official NeurIPS ‘25 paper formatting guidelines (paper checklist is NOT needed) and be fully anonymized for a double-blind review process. Submitted work should be original and unpublished, though submissions on preprint servers like arXiv are permitted. Authors will be asked to confirm that their submissions accord with the NeurIPS Code of Conduct
All accepted papers must be presented in person at the workshop. This is a non-archival venue and there will be no formal proceedings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q0. When will ML4H -> TS4H and spotlight decisions be made?
- November 11th.
- Q1. What does “non-archival venue” mean?
- A non-archival venue is one where accepted papers are not formally published in proceedings. This means the work will not appear in a permanent, citable archive.
- Q2. Does this mean accepted papers can be submitted elsewhere (e.g., to a journal or another conference)?
- Yes! Since our workshop is non-archival, you are free to submit your work elsewhere. We do recommend checking the policies of your target journal or conference, as some may have restrictions on prior presentations — even at non-archival events.
- Q3. Can I submit a paper that has been withdrawn from the main track of a conference?
- Absolutely. You are welcome to submit such work to our workshop.
- Q4. Can I submit the same work to your workshop and another venue (e.g., other NeurIPS workshop) at the same time?
- Yes, concurrent submissions are allowed. Please ensure that your other target venue’s rules permit this.
- Q5. Can I present work at the workshop that has already been accepted elsewhere?
- Yes, provided that the other venue’s policies allow for prior or concurrent presentation at a non-archival workshop. Always confirm with the other venue first.
- Q6. Should we include NeurIPS checklist to our submission?
- No need to include checklist for our workshop submission!
