Scientific Program

The character of our meeting is a symposium rather than a big conference. This format allows a one day meeting, intense discussion, inspiring face to face meetings. Attendants might be able to just arrive on the day of the meeting and don't need extra accomodation. The scientific part of the conference is set up for a hybrid meeting to offer online participation. In case of unsuitable timeline we offer delayed view at your convenience. Registration is mandatory. Please make your choice with your registration.
