Forwarding this info to the list even if it's slightly out of focus:

The PETS conference is where all of the academic privacy / anonymity
experts gather each year:
https://petsymposium.org/

This year it's in Minneapolis, July 18-21.

The list of accepted papers is up (and of course it is open access):
https://petsymposium.org/2017/paperlist.php

Thanks to the generosity of the National Science Foundation and
(hopefully) Ford Foundation, there are stipends available to help get
people to the symposium:

The deadline for stipend application is May 31.

Quoting Roger Dingledine:

"We especially want to use the stipends to attract perspectives
and motivations that are different from the usual academic
research-and-publishing crowd. In the past we've had great participation
from people who care about building and deploying the tools (aka hackers
and activists), and from people who care about the societal implications
of the research (aka artists and politicians)."

Cheers!
