Plenary sessions

Plenary presentations are divided into eight thematic sessions.

Sessions comprise an overview
talk given by an invited keynote speaker (25 min + 5 min questions) followed by three 15 min presentations + 5 min questions. Speakers for these talks were selected from the pool of abstracts submitted by participants willing to give an oral presentation.

The final programme including plenary sessions, keynote speaker presentations, and presentations chosen from abstracts can be found here.
