I'll be giving the keynote address at Sim4IA at SIGIR 2025

It is a great honor giving the keynote address at the Second Workshop on Simulations for Information Access (Sim4IA 2025), collocated with SIGIR 2025 in Padua: From toy models to tactics: What user simulation is good for.

It will be my first time attending SIGIR—yes, really! And I am very much looking forward to it.
