Proposal Symposia

Instructions to submit proposal Symposia (Read carefully)

A symposium is a unique opportunity to present up-to-date results on a specific topic.

We encourage symposia which brings together academic and researchers from different countries or different universities to allow networking. The total duration of the symposia is 90 minutes, including time for questions from the audience. The distribution of time between each presentation is left at the discretion of the moderators of the symposia. All combinations are accepted provided that the total duration is not exceeded.
