PROGRAMME
For each session we have invited two leading scientists who will introduce the topic and present their perspective and relevant work (25 minutes plus 5 minutes discussion).
Abstract Submissions
Two to four additional speakers for each session will be selected from submitted abstracts.
Poster Sessions
The remainder of submitted abstracts will be presented as posters on Friday, October 11th. Posters will be up throughout the meeting close to the lecture hall to ensure maximal exposure and optimally facilitate interactions.
We will organize 'Meet-the-Expert' lunch session on Friday and Saturday where young scientists and PhD students meet with senior faculty.
