Scientific Programme
Seventy participants will be selected and invited to register for the Winter School and to present their work based on the scientific quality of their submitted abstracts. The well-established and interactive structure of the programme includes six keynote lectures, each of them followed by thematically grouped oral presentations by participants, selected according to the high quality of their submitted abstracts. All other abstracts will be presented during two poster sessions.
